The funny thing is, it's not even my own apathy (which is usually the case in abundance) but of people I consider important in my life.
I haven't bothered to tell but a few that I'm leaving. Only those who have taken the time to actually stay in touch or return my calls. It's funny that in all I have going on, virtually no one (save one or two rather impressive individuals) have bothered to even ask how I'm doing. That's okay. We all have lives. It's just a question of whether you wish make the effort to be included in someone else's. I'm just as guilty of this, and it's a selfish and equally guilty desire that people should rally around me as my life seems to be cruising in the turbulent lane - the one with the shredded tire, crashed Subaru and lost paint cans.
Still, this has prompted me to make a short list (a very short list) of people to see before I go. I haven't much time left.
Everyone else will figure it out. Eventually.
I'm sure this is a hypocritical entry, and I'm likely the worst kind of friend. I try not to be. I try. Perhaps we reap what we sow, right? Anyway this is just a random vent.
Pay it no heed.

Okay, the mystery is too much for me! Your previous post hinted at some things, and now it's a little more pointed. What's up?
