Lost and Safe

I've been thinking recently about identity and friends. I'm beginning to realise that i seem to be quite jealous and protective of the frienships that i have and once they're in a place i like i kind of expect them to stay in status quo (which they obviuosly they can't) and then get annoyed when they don't. Given tha the nature of my frienship groups is that they are distinct i'm uncomfortable when someone from one group bleeds into the other. This may be because i act differently in each group perceiving myself as having a different role so nervous of someone from one group seeing me 'out of character' or i'm worried that that group will end up the best of friends and exclude me. Now this is all very paranoid and over analytical on my part i know but it's how i feel. The obvious solution would be the same in all situation but i'm not sure how possible that is since i think you alter your behavour to accommodate the people you're with. Maybe you should just be the person God wants you to be but then i never find an answer like that particularly applicable in 'real life'.

On a completely unrelated point. My two January albums (Cat Power and Jenny Lewis) whilst being released tommorrow, Amazon only predicts them to be despatched on Thursday- bloody useless. I should have remembered that their pre-order service is lame.

  • -how about friendships that stay in & listen to status quo?
    -amazon are indeed useless. i ordered a couple things just after new year (a cd (jazzanova remixes 2000-2005) and a book (never sweat an aubergine)) and the estimated delivery date is between the middle of february & early march. rubbish.
    -know what you mean about acting different round different people. i might comment something more when i've had a bit more of a think about it.
    -i hope you had a lovely friday night
