My Favorite Shot of Jen
g. says:
"hmm. thought a bit about adding when she hated it (and he said he would throw it away!). but if she always hates it, i guess it's ok. I understand he kept it. it's a great filmstill. tells a story."
Jen and I talked yesterday about the letting go of friends, something I have found I have an unusually high level of experience with. There were people she had known for a long time, but found she was no longer connected to them, no longer cared about them in the way that friends do.

I can remember, in addition to several people who have just drifted from my life, several occasions in which I consciously "de- friended" people, for one reason or another. Maybe one guy became too self-involved and "Hollywood" ;. Another guy became very clingy and wanted me to be his number one best friend because he didn't have anybody else to hang out with. There was the girl who made out with me one night, then made out with my roommate the next(it was college, wackiness was everywhere).

I suppose it is a bit too easy for me to cut people loose, but why waste time faking friendship?

This shot of Jen, and another like it, were taken in an alley as I went to buy some books. Jen hated both of the shots, and suggested I should throw them away. I said I would. But hell, I never throw shots away! That is heresy.
