172. Bye.

So, it's been awhile. I sincerely apologize.
I'm going to start this 365 up again.

i've already failed, but I could use the challenge to make it to December 31, 2010.

so. today was a good, but sad day..
I've been working at Kings Island for exactly a month now.
Today was supervisor Alex's last day.
this is an extremely saddening idea to think about.
because, in all honesty, he was my favorite.
maybe it was the level of awkwardness; it rivaled my awkwardness.
i don't know. regardless.

i said goodbye to him about an hour ago.
i really wish it never happened.

i suck at goodbyes.
i'm absolutely terrible.
"k. i'm leaving. bye"

as i stood there. i didn't believe he had heard me.
great. awesome.

that offered "high-five" that turned into a tackle-hug; yeah, that pretty much broke my heart into about four-hundred pieces.
not going to lie.

as I was driving home, i passed the exit where Redline stayed for WGI championships.
and it reminded me of when I said goodbye to Aaron Spevak.
that was one of the most vibrant goodbye's I'd ever had to do.
"this isn't goodbye; just see you soon".

i wish i had been as calm about this goodbye as I was that one.

Ayala HS 2009 drumline show; "Goodbye" ALWAYS brings me to tears. ALWAYS.
Guaranteed. Specifically at the end; when they have a Boyz II Men patch the---

"It's unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Come to the end of the road
Still I can't let you go
It's unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you"

yes. i totally break down. the last 40 seconds of the show: i am 100% always in tears.

moral of the story; I hate goodbyes.
I hate goodbyes that are actually goodbyes and not see-ya-later goodbyes.

it breaks my heart. no matter the person. no matter the situation at hand.
