The psychedelic boatride that is my life has taken an unexpected turn today. E.M., erstwhile bestfriend/worst enemy/fellow Athens party queen, is in town with her new baby. Now, we've been friends since we were ten, and our mothers were friends when they were girls. Also, her grandmother taught me and everyone else piano lessons. That's the way it goes here, we're all triple carbon bonded.

Anyway, I've been persona non grata since skipping E.M.'s wedding five years ago (I was in a bad mood that year). Partly it could've been that I was leading T.G.L., the gay lifestyle, at the time, so I was bitter about seeing someone else get legally married. I know I avoid weddings for reasons too boring to outline here, but let's just say I've seen exactly three of my multitude of friends get married. Two of those marriages have ended in divorce. Coincidence, but I'm not taking any chances.

So I'm off to hold the kidlet and pretend I like babies, and genuninely catch up and meet her husband. I'll be back later with an update on this and last night's Percy Sledge concert.

Oh, and something amazing happened last night, but I don't have words for it so I'll keep it to myself. I have to save something of this little life of mine for me.
