A Pox On Me, Day 7: Best Friends Forever, or at least until dinner is over…

The wonderful thing about friendship is that its convenient. Forget all that fluff about how your friends will be there to share your joy, sorrow & truest moments. There are people who seriously thrive on drama & there also those who want a piece of your success. A true test of friendship is when you want someone to be random with!

That’s right! When you want to have a burger at 2am in the morning, when you feel like drunken stargazing, when you feel like poking fun at friends selling love spells in the flea market or when you can’t stand staying at home with chicken pox & just need to get out, that’s when you can count on a true friend.

The best story of randomness I’ve heard recently is from my cousin who went to Genting Highlands (a mountain top casino resort) just to brush her teeth with her friends. They packed their tooth brushes, drove for 2 hours & located one of those lovely fountains where they did dutifully up kept their oral hygiene.

Times like this I miss my goatyest friend. He maybe an evil antagonistic squeaky voiced slab of tough mutton, but we still do some of the most whimsical stuff together. Awkwardness may be an issue but hey, isn’t it always? Nowadays it can feel like we’re strangers, but deep down we know its very comfortable.

Its' been a long time since I've seen your face
But I want you to know, no one ever took your place
And the dream is here but I don't know where
I'm runnin' around, no time to spare

Hey you look like me but you talk like a stranger
It's all goin' deep, deeper than a razor
Closer, out of control
Comin' from a deeper love

It's been a long time since I felt I know you
And all of my words, they just seem too wrong, to you
You're killin' my dream but I don't know why
I'm runnin' around, no time to die

Hey you look like me but you talk like a stranger
It's all goin' deep, deeper than a razor
Closer, out of control
My hearts goin' deeper now

It's been a long trip and I'm willin' to show you
Hey that life it can change, but I'll always know you
You're holdin' the key to the other side
And believe if I was risen, the eyes of a child

mmmm...
Hey you look like me but you talk like a stranger
It's all goin' deep, deeper than a razor
Closer, out of control

Hey you look like me but you talk like a stranger
It's all goin' deep, deeper than a razor
Closer, out of control
My hearts goin' deeper now
