All heck breaks loose

You’re not going to believe this, but it is a VERY brief account of my last 24 hours…

One friend called last night, and by the time we had determined that I
had company and she (the caller) was in tears, she hung up, despite me
begging her not to (and the company being someone she knew). 

Then another friend called, and informed me that she should stop
talking to me — taking over 35 minutes to do so, including me pointing
this fact out about halfway through.  No, I hadn’t done anything
wrong, she was just afraid that she might forget I was just a friend
and I deserved better than her (her words).

Then I got an email from my fantasy online girlfriend, who informed me
it was insane for us to wait for each other for 2 years — something I
told her in the first place, and she talked me out of.  It is nice
to think that she thought of me for so long before dumping me though.

I got a call from another friend, who just got out of the hospital from
a nervous breakdown, after the man who is housing her and her husband
tried to force her into a relationship with him and literally called
her “my property”.

My company and another friend went to check on the friend who had hung
up in tears… she’s all right today, and the eventual upshot was that
she now owns the goldfish I’ve had from Kayla…

Another friend called.  A man she was interested in turned out to
not like her because she was too old… turns out he likes small
children…  he was mad at her for not understanding…

I know I forgot something… but oh well, that’s enough… 

I am very glad to be in so many peoples’ lives (or out of them). 
This has just been Drama Day, I guess.  Good thing I don’t have
much of my own to add (other than sadness over the hurts of my friends
and the breakup of my online relationship).

Hugs,
Me
