So I've had a bunch of extremely fun nights within these past two years, but I'm pretty sure last night was the icing on the cake. My friends Sam and Andrew are in a band called Wasted Society, and since last night was their last show of the summer, I decided that I needed to be a supportive friend and go. So J. Lynch picked me up, then our friends Galen, Victoria and Ali, and headed over to the Beachland Tavern in Cleveland.
We were the first ones there (besides the band) and we just chilled while they did their soundcheck. After a while, Riko came with Brandon and their friend Sakeena, and Brandon and Sam's coworker, Kevin.
Guys. I only freaked out and went to the bathroom one time. Usually if I'm around a huge group of people in public I go like every 10 minutes. That's a fucking record right there.
So we all talked in between acts and caught up, which was nice. After the show we ended up at Denny's since that was the only place that didn't ask for ID after midnight and we had a few 17-year-olds in our group. As much as I despise Denny's food, the fact that we sat at our table (and booth - thanks random party of 25 coming to Denny's at midnight), and just chatted like we were one, big family was just...wow. I haven't been that happy in a long time. And the fact that I was around my ex all night and I didn't flip shit was just so relieving, you know?
My friends deal with a lot of shit from me, like me not texting them back (or texting them at all, or hesitating to text them even when they tell me not to 'cause oh god what if they don't really mean it ) or going on a tangent on how I think everyone hates me or the fact that it takes a lot to convince me to leave my house now and days, and even though I don't say this very often, I am really, truly thankful that they have stuck by me for this long. These past two years have been really hard for me mentally, and the fact that you guys are still around really means a lot.
So after last night, I think it's safe to say that my friends will still be around while I continue to get my shit together. I think it'll really help if I do more things like this.
WHEN DENISE GOES ON VACATION Y'ALL BETTER BE AT MY HOUSE, YA HEAR?
