Psychosis redux

Aug 03, 2005 18:50

We replaced Slappy's real brain with that of an over-emotional nutcase. Let's watch...


I hadn't seen him in a while. We had drinks at Halo and Cobalt. Before that we stopped at Target to pick up a padlock for his U-Haul trailer, which he was scheduled to take across the country the next morning. Had a great time, everything was casual. Kept talking in the car as I was taking him back to his place. Everything was still casual. I was still having a great time. When we got over the 14th Street Bridge and approached the exit to his apartment, I suddenly started to lose my shit. I did my best not to let on that I was losing my shit and I succeeded (I think...I hope...maybe). I said goodbye, wished him a safe trip, and we made the usual promise to stay in touch. By the time I got back to the main road I could no longer control myself. I began to bawl uncontrollably...to the point where I had to pull over because I couldn't see the road. I couldn't stop crying. I don't remember crying this much when I lost a family member. After about 5 minutes on the side of the road I calmed down a bit and continued home. I lost it again when I walked in the door.

I do miss him, but Good God, what the hell was that about?
