Though we're not officially "broken up," it's pretty fair to say we really aren't "friends" anymore. Were we ever? By some definitions, no. not really. But we were "there for each other" through some tough times and around for the occasional good times.
Ric and his bestie Scott. I like Scott, I've known him for years too. I think I first met him when he came down here back around the time this pic was taken at IOA back in the Golden Age of our theme park halcyon days. Gary's here too and Barry, Scott's then-beau. They're both gone now. And yes by "gone" I mean dead.
Here's Ric this week with his bestie Scott up in "India-No Place" as they like to call it. Ric's visiting fam and him for T-Day, of course. Usually Ric would take vaca time, like I have this week. No need for him to do so now since, well, he's unemployed. Yet the partying goes on!
Oh party on, Ric. These are the somewhat fun days...the money stash from the 401k close out is still quite robust. But when the hangover comes and you realize the shit you're in, it seems like such folly. Hopefully that realization doesn't come too late for some damage control to go into place.
Ah well, at least he has his BFF to join him on his journey into Koyo. Dear Scottie's pro'ly guzzling the sauce 'cause he recently broke up with his boyfriend and at 53 it's gonna be a bumpy ride on the "elder gay dating again" ride. And unlike Ric, Scott's self-realization skill set is still somewhat in tact so he well knows it. You're right Scott, those highlights don't make you look 30 again and they're not in style anyway, outside of Indiana.
Wow, I just laughed out loud reading this. It sounds like I'm a jealous ol' bitter queen with nothing better to do than write my derisive critique on a blog no one reads.
Bitter, party of one!
