Friends

“You’re never gonna have it all figured out…”
When you drive your drunk friend home…
But they pass out in the car (it’s their birthday weekend and they’ve had so much alcohol…), and when you get to their apartment they aren’t waking up so you can get them to their couch…
So instead you take your blanket from the backseat, cover them up, lay the seat back, and just wait. 🤷🏻♀️
I wish I had food. I also wish I could just go home, I want to be comfy in my pajamas and in my bed. This is crap.
But I’m THAT friend. Imma take care of you.

“Ask me to come by, tell me I’ll wake up in your arms…”
One of my goals for the year was spending more time with my friends and growing those friendships which have been helping to pull me out of my depressive episodes. I’m happy to say that so far in January, I’ve gotten to spend time with friends twice. One of them was for a friend’s birthday at the beginning of the month, and on Saturday some of us gathered again to celebrate a different friend’s birthday.
We went to a place in the Charlotte area that was doing karaoke. I did not get up in front of everyone to sing, but I did sing along from my seat while some of those friends belted out amazing renditions of their chosen songs. I also happened to see some folks that I hadn’t seen in like 7 years! It was great to see them again, meet one of the friend’s spouse who I love, and honestly can’t wait to hang out with again.
It was a wonderful weekend. I’m truly blessed to know these people.
