figured it out

it started with one starry night camping in santa cruz for the main asians birthday. for any one who was in attendance it's a night we will never forget. like a bolt of lightning to our eyes, to them it was as if it’d been happening for years, a kiss between peter and lois declaring to the world (the world = us campers) that they were dating. no one believed that this day would ever unfold but there is was staring everyone in the face. this may have been in the works for years but in this moment we were all in shock. i did my part to help this along and may have been a little more prepared for this kiss than others but it was still so weird to see. don't get me wrong i was happy but it was just different.


after many nights of long talks with my roomie lois and many thoughts exchanged i knew this was the beginning of the end for me. now it was lois staying up past her bed time with a boy. yep i was replaced by a boy. it was such an exciting time for them and i was happy to be a part of it all. ok maybe not all of it since there were some days when i wanted to escape from the lovin', touchin' and squeezin'. although i was 100% for this love connection but at times it was a bit much for me to be around. for me it was a blast assisting in the start of getting the ball rolling in the right direction, now the rest is history.

i can't believe it's been a year since the griffins made it official. that's right lois and peter got married this very day last year. i was so happy for them but if i’m being honest it was sad for me and i was sad to say goodbye to a large chapter in my life. i know change is inevitable and this was bound to happen but it was still a salty sweet day. salty from all the fake tears i didn't let flow and sweet because the griffins finally tied the knot. mostly i was overwhelmed with the paths of these two people who fell in love and how easily the paths they were each on fit seamlessly side by side. it's an amazing thing to watch two of your best friends fall in love. it took longer than all of us wanted it to take but after all these years they finally got it right. he finally figured it out and saw what was right in front of him. i guess i'll cut him a little slack and blame it on the contacts he used to never change.
