Walk Like You Talk

Last night, I mulled on life in general while waiting for my turn on my numerous Lexulous games. I passed time looking at my friends on FB.

What a mix! I have all kinds of friends. There are crazy ones, quiet ones, cool ones, serious ones, kikay ones, weird ones, soci ones... So many kinds! I wonder if they will get along if I hold a 40th birthday party?

I also realized that I change depending on who I am with. Not change entirely but I kinda change my walk and my talk. I become crazier when I'm with the crazy ones... I change how I eat and sit when I'm with the soci ones... I become more interested in books or movies or business when I'm with the serious or quiet ones... I'm gentle when I'm with my China doll friend, Tessa... I'm mean when I'm with my voodoo doll friend, Ruth... and so on. I do have a "core" group of friends that I don't need to adjust to. They are the weird ones. LOL.

It's interesting how I adapt and still maintain my intrinsic qualities. Is that being plastik? Does that mean I have to change in order to have friends? Or do they love me the way I am? What am I? Who knows what I really am?

That's a lot of nonsense talk. It's like imagining all sorts of stuff while looking at a blank piece of material not to create but simply to complicate matters. My friends adapt to me, too. They have to or else they will not be able to stand my rotten sense of humor and my sarcasm and my general devil-may-care attitude.

The important thing is we're all comfortable in our skin and in each other regardless of who and what we are.
