I just found out a very close friend is moving to Nevada in two weeks. He's going to be with his dying grandfather for the last few months of his life. I understand why he's going and all, but it still hurts. I'm really going to miss him. I really wanted to have my first (legal) drink with him when I turned twenty-one, and to be able to actually go to a bar with him. I actually knew what I was getting him for his birthday this year, and I wanted to see his face when he got it. I want to be able to call him and know he's right down the road and if I'm really upset or lonely, he'll come be with me. I want to be able to look foward to seeing him at somepoint during the week, for gaming if nothing else. Like papercuts, they hurt out of all proportion to their size. Little petty things, compared to what he's going through, but they're what hurts the most sometimes.
