&lt;p&gt;I feel great! Normally, after a 2 hour phone call, I don’t. It mostly depends on caller/receiver. Or maybe it has something to do with the fact that last time I had verbal communication with this person was about a year and half ago. It may even be longer. All I know is that it was before I starting keeping call records. Boy it was great talking to her again. I had been thinking about her a lot recently and it was finally nice to hear her voice. We reminisced a little bit, but mostly shared our recent experiences( emotional and “what-not”) and also our fears of growing up. She sounded really delighted to hear from. I hope she was. I was very happy to hear from her.  ; ) &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;cross my heart, hope to die&lt;br&gt;i swear i won’t say what happened that night&lt;br&gt;so starting today things are gonna be all right&lt;br&gt;your best you tried, and yeah you did fine&lt;br&gt;no better than fine, perfect in my mind&lt;br&gt;in fact, i wish your heart was mine&lt;br&gt;and i can hear the memory in my ears&lt;br&gt;back to the years and all those tears&lt;br&gt;but hear me when i say i’m glad we steered that way&lt;br&gt;because now we’re here&lt;br&gt;--The Rocket Summer&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;Many people tell me that they do not know anything about me.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;That's true.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Of course, how would someone know more about me than I know myself?&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Alright, to be honest, I am not a very open person.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Especially with emotions and feelings.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I rarely ever honestly express how I am feeling through physical emotion.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I am very good at masking my emotional state.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Those that know me well can truly say they have seen my "happy."&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;When I am having a good time, you'll know it.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Most likely not through my actions...unless you are one of the lucky few.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I have fun a lot.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I like to have fun.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;However, I often do not look like I am having fun.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I can not explain why, that's who I am.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;You can not honestly tell me that you have never had a day where you were completely fine and enjoying yourself, but just didn't show any signs of it all.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Com'on you know you have had a day like that.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;That is what my day was like today.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I had a lot of fun; I enjoyed myself quite a bit.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I just had no intention of expressing it physically.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I hope this helps those with questions.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Now, to cover a front that has been losing...but not with my troops.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;My true friends can tell you that I rarely disclose any information, be it meaning-less or not, voluntarily.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;However, I will spill out most information if I am engaged into a conversation or asked directly.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;This subject is slightly easier for me to explain.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I do this because I feel that most of what I could say has no relevance, meaning, or desire to be heard.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I would rather not burden people with my jabber.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Unfortunately, people seem to consider this information crucial to understanding a person.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;It's a bunch of bull to me.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Most of what is said is just a formality...no one really cares where you went to lunch (for example).&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;It clearly a social tool used by the insecure to develop a weak bond between one person to another.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;A bond that is built on lies (subconscious or not) and useless information.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I feel that most of it is a waste of time.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;That is why I rarely talk...mainly with "adults" for that swap irrelevant jabber all the time.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;Do not judge because I am quite and keep to myself, I merely do not want you and I to create a "bond" (or friendship if you will) that both of us know has no substance.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;If you feel you do not know me, then ask me directly...don't ask me how my day was, I know you don't care (I don't really care either).&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I just wanted to express how I feel about these things as they seem to have come up recently.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;I hope that you now understand, and if you don't, then maybe you should ask me directly (it's a better way to get to know me than asking if I had fun at the fair).&lt;?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
