I still read the blogs on xanga. Although I don't read Laura's because she literally copies and pastes her myspace blog into it, I do read Norman 's everyday (which by the way, I am glad that Norman is doing better). I also read a blog by this woman in…I'm not sure where she's from, but she's about my age and a lawyer and hilarious. I don't know her, but I love reading about her life. Recently she wrote a post about this woman she works with who she accused of trying to level-jump. TL (the blogger) said that while she liked casually hanging out with her; chatting at work, etc., the level jumper keeps asking her to do major things like go camping or go on a double date (it's like the episode of Seinfeld where someone asks Jerry to help him move when they haven't known each other that long).
So you maybe wondering why I am writing about someone else's blog…let me explain.
I need friends. Ok, that made me sounds pretty lame. I guess I need people in my vicinity to hang out with. I met a woman through Norman, and I saw her a couple of times recently and we had talked about hanging out. Ok, so I guess that is level one. So now I want to act on it. I want to email her and say, "Let's really hang out." I have a feeling I might be level jumping; like I might be the poor girl that people say, "Let's hang out," to get me off their back. But I am cool and fun to hang out with; I just need to be given a chance.
And if I am going to level jump, I need to do it soon. This weekend I am going to a couple's house to watch a movie. I am not going because I want to, but because I am starting to really like spending weekends alone and I don't think that is beneficial to my future. But I don't think movie weekends with this couple are beneficial to my future either.
When did getting friends seem harder than dating?

Is my friend from Kentucky, cuz if it's that friend, jump to the next level. She doesn't say things she doesn't mean and two of her closest friends just moved.
Damn. I'm lonely, too.
