so, school started yesterday, and what have i done for the past two days? sit on my ass. because my stupid self didn't fill out my degree stuff in time to register for classes this semester. woohoo. now i get to find a full time job besides what i'm already doing.
amadeo and i went to visit his family this weekend. his best friend was in town and he hasn't seen him for a year. while i was there, i remembered mori was in town so i gave her a call and we got to spend a couple of hours together on sunday.
i don't get to see her much, and every time i do, i've forgotten how much i miss her and really adore her friendship. during the car ride from her house back to amadeo's parents', i jumped on my soapbox (not a surprise) about how so many of our friends don't really appreciate mori and really spread bad thoughts about her to others. they haven't grown up. they take one or two things that she's done or said a long time ago ONCE and that becomes their opinion of how she is all the time, as if she can't grow out of that first impression. and mori isn't the only one they do it to. we're all victims of their closed-mindedness. mori has always been such a wonderful friend. she's always gone way beyond the call of duty for a friend. and our friends always overlook all the wonderful, sweet things she does for all of us.
i remember my freshman year one night when we were both having a bad time. sometimes all you need is to be next to someone who understands.
i realized i would follow that woman anywhere she moved. i won't, cuz that's just creepy.
i also realized that if i ever get married, i want her involved. of all my college friends, i always assumed that sperkward would be the one i'd always be closest to. but i realize now that mori's always been my favorite.
goin' to the doctor this weekend. it's and oh-so-exciting gyno visit. yay. can't wait. i really think they should give you magazines to read during the actual exam so you don't have to think about what's going on. put your mind on a happy place.
a friend of mori's referred to her gynecologist as the "down-there-doctor." that's always made me laugh (the whole laughing at air movement thing, i guess). one of the women in the vagina monologues referred to the area between her legs as "down there" (i'd quote, but i lent my copy to sprite when she was in the hospital and i haven't seen it since). she didn't like it much down there. she didn't go there if she didn't have to. she didn't understand how anyone would want to go anywhere like that.
i disagree. i like having "her" down there. i think she should get as much attention as possible -- that why she's there. there's a reason that the clitoris has more nerve endings in its tiny little area that the entire area of the penis. she's a wonderful and powerful thing, and though sometimes hot and sticky and smelly, to paraphrase that woman, she should be celebrated.
i think mori would be happy if she knew that i talked about her in the same entry that i spoke about pussy.
