what will the water tell me

My best friend of 12 years lives 20 minutes away and I enjoy going there to smoke that dank and do adolescent suburb shit. (We're nearing 30).

We had a great weekend where I brought my DJ gear to the house to practice(ignoring his request to Clorox every input, knob and fader.) and then drove out to walk around one of the state parks on a windy cyberpunk day.

I got a text from him this morning saying "Hey man, let's not meet in person for the next month. Let's just play online!"

A younger me would have taken this as an obvious passive attack on our relationship, the ultimate betrayal, however, current me is "I can respect that wish".

He and his fiance are planning on getting married late 2020. COVID-19 is planning on staying for a while.

I wonder what the plans for my youth are; I'll have to take a walk by the river and ask.
