I remember the day....

You know, it's funny.... I've covered before how I tend to remain friends (given a certain amount of "time off") with exes, and often we actually become close again (Steve and I disagree entirely on this point... he prefers the "clean break", whereas I tend to think I must have enjoyed their company in the first place, right?), but sometimes it's too soon, and you end up back together...

Elaine: David and I will not get back together.

Jerry: Elaine, breaking up is like knocking over a coke machine. You can't do it in one push, you got to rock it back and forth a few times, and then it goes over.

Elaine: That's really beautiful.

Anyway, aside from that... and there's no way to really say this without sounding conceited, but I'm also typically the person who finally knocks over the proverbial Coke machine, while not necessarily the one who gives it the first push. I have to say that when roles are reversed, it's a lot harder to give that whole "friend" thing a chance, especially when it was one of those times where you kinda get blindsided... and perhaps moreso for being the kind of person who relives everything......

And I remember the day when you left for Santa Monica
You left me to remain with all your excuses for everything
And I remember the time when you left for Santa Monica
And I remember the day you told me it's over

That's not to say I'm not willing to try.

PS: Yes, I am aware of the preponderance of song lyrics and quotes lately... get over it.
