Peeps

Even though I barely see anyone besides my immediate family, most of all my children - I think I have a rare disease. It is called - "talk to everyone you've ever met and meet new people way too much" disease.
With myspace, and facebook, it's way too easy to keep in contact with peeps. I think I take after my pops, in the sense that I K.I.T. with way too many people. I don't mind at all, in fact I'm always curious about peeps. I like peeps. What can I say? If I had more time, I'd probably fill up each day of the month hanging out with a different person, to just blab, gossip, and chillz.
I know almost every single person that lives on my block. I do have some favorites, that's for sure, but for being as social as I am, it seems like I barely ever even see anyone anymore.
There is though, one person I do see every once in awhile, who is my favorite - and that's M.M. (Monica M.)
I was thinking about her today after I woke up from this strange nightmare. She had nothing to do with the nightmare, but I thought about her.
She's been my Best Homey since Kindergarden - and that was 25 freakin years ago - or 26 now? I have no clue - but she has always been my best friend.
Anyhow... I was remembering that once she spent the night, and said to me - "let's try writing with our other hand". So, I took a pen, and started trying to write with my left hand.

It didn't go so well. I was writing like an idiot. Then... I said " monica - it's your turn".
So, she took the pen, grabbed it with her left hand and started writing.
"wow!!!!! You are SOOO good at that!" I couldn't believe that my best friend was ambidextrous. The only person I knew who could do that was my first grade teacher, and I was shocked.

A few minutes later, she was sitting on my bed, busting a gut, then told me she was left handed. And I was like " oh yeah, duh, I forgot". And all that time, I was sitting there trying to be as cool as she was, and attempting to learn the tricks of left hand writing. What a dork I am.
