old friends.

I rarely, if ever, check my email; the last time I checked it I had over three thousand notification emails from facebook and other spam sites. So when I logged on to my email, I expected nothing but hordes of pointless spam messages that I would have to systematically rifle through and delete. Of anything, I did not expect a letter from a friend, especially a friend that I had not heard from in a while.
Maxie and Tommy—the two college students that had found me and taught me the rules and ways of the rave. Quite possibly, the two first nice humans I’d ever met.

Hey Olo! Max here.
Long time no see. Or talk. Or message. Or rave. :( It’s been a while, hasn’t it? Hope everything’s been going well in your little universe. I got your emails a while ago—sorry that I haven’t responded. It’s just been so chaotic with the moving around and college and all of that. Can you believe that it took us over a month to get an apartment? Some people just hung up on us when we said we wanted to lease an apartment for two men. They were jerks…oh well. PLUR, right? ;)
Anyway, when are you coming over to visit us with those little kiddies of yours? I’d LOVE to meet Jack and Jill, and I know Tommy would too. Let me know ASAP, bud! It would be great to meet up again!
-Max, the magnificent.

The epitaph made me smile a bit. Trust Max to use that nickname I’d given him so long ago…how long had it actually been since I’d seen them last? Months, at the very least. I’d been with Miss Miss since September, so it had been months. Too long, much too long; it would be nice to meet up with old friends again. Quickly I typed up a response, grinning wider with each tap at the keyboard.

Olo the Doorbell here.
Sounds like a great idea! Just send me the address—it might take a while, but I’d love to join in the housewarming pleasantries. ^,,^ Jack and Jill send their regards. See you two soon!
