Polyphonic Catastrophe - One strange thing that I did realize

As I did my annual thinking process of "what I'm lacking for happiness (right now)" and "what I did wrong in the past year" I had an interesting moment that slipped in there.

I may not have my own home. I dont have an ass kicking job that has me saving lives, being a hero, raking in money, or placing me on a pedestal. I may be eternally single. And I may have a nerdy ass hobby in being an obsessive game collector.

But, I find it funny that a guy that was raised with practically zero social skills, was picked on mercilessly, and no athletic skills whatsoever, managed to amass a widespread collection of friends and associates that he never in his wildest dreams expected to have growing up.  Some of those people may only pop up once a year. Others may be around every day. And still there are others that really know how to push my buttons and piss me off. But they are still valuable to me and I am ridiculously grateful to have those people in my life...even if I dont always show it.

Perhaps I have grown a bit, after all. ^_^
