she needs no more irony.

because she just doesnt welcome any more.

ive been telling myself [and others when they ask how shes doing] that karrie and i havent been able to see much of each other lately because of our work/class schedules. and then theres the intricate little detail of a fact that when she has free time im in class or at work . and vice versa.
well... how about that became more a hard reality than i am not ready to accept when i call karrie to tell her that the girl that works straight through all weekends happens to have not only a shift but a saturday and sunday off!.... only to find that the girl [we're talking karrie now] that has recently been having freeish weekends.... has, you know it... been scheduled doubles on both saturday and sunday. when she told me that, i couldnt figure out if i wanted to cry or scream. which, i suppose in a lot of cases they go hand in hand. today was such a case.

can i just state at this point that i really, undeniably, miss my karrie? this just wont do. by the time we get to hang out we will both be so frustrated by the end of our fun that we wont have any breath for words. at least this is my prediction. you see, we pick at each other because we are so incredibly different that its funny we are such good friends, so, naturally, when we havent been around each other for a significant amount of time then it looks like we are about to kill each other im sure, but no worries, those witty jabs at each others personalities are all well intentioned and as friendly as Kanga telling Rabbit that no one cares if his carrots are organic because cartoons cant eat carrots anyway. [that made a lot of hilarious sense in my head by the way but i realize it may be just some silly julie jargon... aka the stuff i make up in my head that makes perfect sense to all of..... myself and karrie cant deny that she understands it too ... which is pretty appropriate in this situation i suppose... ]

i realize this is a prime time to post a good karrie/julie picture... but alas since my hard drive decided to off itself, i dont have any pictures... nope not one. lets say i learned my lesson about keeping backups the hard way... [especially since it was the week before spring break when i had a few too many papers due... and partly written...argh.] BUT.... big time kudos to melissas dad, because he fixed my little black hole of a lap top that grabs at all my free time and distracts me from too many productive things. he couldnt retrieve my old files, but, a new one i did not have to pursue.

but... thanks to myspace and karries posting...:

representing our love for goodwill fun:

representing.....um, an average day:

and smiles:

and the award for best picture depicting the subtle differences in karrie and julie while still displaying unity in their radical friendship goes too...:
[this is one of my favorites]

Sorrow is a lonely feeling
Unsettled is a painful place
I've lived with both for far too long now
