| | | Cheer Up! I was really depressed last week after talking to Jeffrey about his Valentine's Day surprise to Kate. I was reminiscing about Aaliyah when Megan called to help her with the computer. I guess I was looking really depressed and more quiet than normal, so she asked me what the matter was. I told her about how I used to plan stuff for Aaliyah too and how I really miss her. Megan looked helpless. We talked about my date with the redhead and how it went so horribly wrong. Sometimes I think I'm the one who's doing all the wrong moves. Maybe I'm just oblivious to things or I lost my mojo or whatever I had. Maybe Aaliyah loved me so much that she tolerated all my shortcomings until she couldn't take it anymore.
"Look Bob, you need to relax and just have fun for a while," said Megan, "Maybe having a relationship right now for you is not the best thing. Why don't you date for a while and see the options out there for you? I'm sure something will work out. I mean, you're a great guy." She really tried her best to change my mood. "I don't think there's anyone out there for me Megan, I mean, she's gone and I don't think I'll be getting her back," I told her.
Then Megan said, "I'll tell ya what, I'll make a pact with you. If you're not married by the age of 35 and I'm not married, why don't we just marry each other?" I was stunned. Speechless. This is Megan we're talking about, folks. Someone I've known all my life--someone I've never expected in a million years would 'propose' to me. "Um... okay... since we're really great friends, I guess we can work something out like that."
There you have it folks, at least someone's out there for me. I'm not going to die alone, old and decrepit. I thought it was really sweet of her to say something like that. We made a pact and shook hands on it. Just like when we used to shake hands when we were kids back in Cali. It cheered me up a lot, that's for sure! |
