Change

Our ward boundaries changed this last Sunday night. And Peter got called to be executive secretary. We lost two big chunks of our ward and got about 65 new households. I've been trying to update my maps because I like to do futile things like that. I don't have house numbers for the new part of our ward, so it's tricky.

I'm pretty sad about losing some of the people I really wanted to be friends with. I tend to think of people as potential friends and near friends because I don't really consider myself to have real friends here. I'm pretty close on a couple people. That's saying more about me than about them. They're awesome. I'm weird. That was a tangent

I have no idea how many kids we're getting. There are two families with five kids each in them, but I don't know their ages. There are more families with kids, but those are the biggest ones. As far as I know. It's kind of annoying to just know data about people and not anything about the people themselves. I'm really bad at getting to know people.

And now the whiny boy next to me is winning, so we're off to watch a movie.

I didn't mean to offend anyone with my friends comments. All my life I've had an unreasonable expectation that someday I would have a friend that I could go to their house when I was having a rough day and they'd do the same with me; we'd hang out just for the sake of hanging out. It's not really practical with kids and schedules and life in general, but I can't seem to let go of my convoluted view of what an "ideal" friendship should be, hence the "I'm weird" part. I do have good friends in my ward and who used to be in my ward. Don't be mad.
