I'm smiling because the pokeball I have in my sig. turned into a cute little Espeon playing soccer. I can't wait to see my other ones ^_^
Espeon is one of my favourite psychic pokemon

I always try to have it in my team when I can! Congrats!
I'm smiling because I talked with my best friend Jon today over the phone. It always makes me smile, but this in particular time definitely made me feel good. I've been having feelings of loneliness where I'm at and stuff since I don't get to hang out with people much anymore (like friends and stuff) since majority of friends are not in town or in town but are busy. It's been like this for months now and I don't think I realized how much I missed companionship of that kind until after my trip to Port Hope recently. Jon's been busy and such with the wedding and being on your own quite a bit like I can be at home can leave you with thoughts and worries. Knowing me I sometimes can overthink and we all know what it's like being left alone to think...a lot

Anyway one evening last week trying to sleep I was down and fed up that all these feelings of being on my own and being the only one left that I know of in my circle of friends who has someone got me to get up and write Jon an email and letting me vent all of it out. He contacted me the next day wanting to talk Sunday before he read the email which was rather funny timing, and we talked all about this stuff. Turns out Jon's been going nuts himself with the opposite problem: He wants the spare time to relax like I have to just sit and relax. He's always moving around. We both agreed if we could somehow equal each other out, things would be more balanced for us both.
We talked about this stuff and he made a good point to me that I sometimes think more complicated than I need to, especially when wanting to hang out with friends. He suggested for me to simplify abit by just taking some chances I wouldn't normally take with seeing a friend in a nearby town because normally with planning I can sometimes shoot something down if it appears to not be what I exactly want or need at the time or other things. So I'm gonna try what he said and see how it turns out

This is getting uberly longwinded but hopefully you get all what I went through recently and Jon's take on it all

He's one heck of a best friend and this discussion was something I really needed. He's such a sweetheart. He really makes me smile ^_^
