I just got off the phone with my best friend of nine years. We haven't spoken in months, due to varying schedules with work, school, and everything else that life has thrown at us. But tonight, I truly realized why it's been so long. Just as I feared, we've begun to grow apart. He's thinking of starting a family, and this summer, he's moving from Michigan to Alabama to work with his family. I had planned on going back to Michigan for a week or so within the next year, but now he won't be there. And it's a bit upsetting to know that I may never see him again, or at least for quite some time.

This past week has been very busy. Monday, I recieved confirmation that I was going to be attending the sound-check for the Garbage concert next week, and that my copy of thier new album was on it's way, and would arrive the next day.
So, Tuesday, I recieved said album, and immediately forced my co-workers to listen to it and the awesome Garbage "Re-Cycled" promo I had recieved a few weeks ago, on repeat until I left. I'm sure they didn't mind.
After I left, I went straight to the girl's house, to pick her up so we could go to the travel agency. But, why would we go to a travel agency? To book reservations for a trip to Disney World, of course! A couple of her room-mates, one of thier girlfriends, and a couple we're friends with are all going to Disney at the end of August. I get more excited with each passing day, especially with everything she's telling me about it, since I haven't been there for at least five years. It's going to be amazing.
Fast-forward to Sunday. We woke up at 11:30 AM, and left for the New England Aquarium. We saw all sorts of aquatic life, including sharks, sea dragons, jelly-fish, a giant (Frickin' huge!) sea turtle, seals, and of course, how could I forget, PENGUINS!!!
It was great watching these guys swim with such ease, and then hop around thier rocks/cliffs. Endless entertainment for the whole family, or, at least for me.![tongue](https://dz3ixmv6nok8z.cloudfront.net/static/img/emoticons/tongue.55c59c6cdad7.gif)
