I remember quite a few drinking buddies from back then.

The pharoahs were too good to drink with me, so I don't remember any of them.

If only I had the guts to approach said redhead and tell her how I feel without the fear of being rejected (which I know will happen).

Oh, well. Her friendship is good enough.

Ah somehow I doubt when I die that my family and friends will attend my funeral. If anything they'd go to piss on my grave.

I've stepped on a lot of toes. My family's disowned me, so yeah.

Family can be strange about that.

If you went and made up (right or wrong), they probably would forgive you.

Unless they're douchebags, in which case you're probably better off without them.

Because you drank too fucking much. Heck, that you remember your drinking buddies from back then is a miracle.

I know you spent the better part of a thousand years in a drunken stupor.

There's nothing wrong with taking things seriously. It's just that one should try and be open to the experience of love, if it comes. But you know way better than I do what's best for you.

Now, if it comes, do allow yourself the time to experience it. Who knows, it may be the best thing in the world. ;)

I don't feel like making up, to be honest, because the whole affair was their fault for being close-minded.

Or maybe it's my fault that I fail to see their angle, but I digress.

On-topic, anyone I've ever loved or had a crush on has only become worse off from being around me, so suffice to say I feel bad for anyone who comes to like me, shallow and cruel as I am.

Well, all my crushes except the one that kicked me in the nuts. I respected her response so much I remain cordial friends and hope to be business partners with her in the future.

That's not the problem. The problem is that you made into the Bible and I have never been able to live that down. And why the fuck did you pee in the Nile? Can't you pee against a wall or something?

Wait, no. That's how we got into trouble in Babylon.
