Circular breathing

Blogs are very funny. I only use mine when I'm especially low, or especially high. So, I come off quite bipolar. It is going to get cold again. I am so sick of the pattern. I practice the same few things. Nothing gets fixed. I talk to the same few (wonderful) people. Nothing gets said. I do the same mundane chores. Nothing gets done. And it seems like everyone I know is doing the same thing. Is this what getting older is like?
I feel like I don't have as much fun as I should, and I don't have as many friends as I should. But, I don't just gather people to add to a 'friend collection'. I actually want to enjoy their company. Why is it so hard here to make friends? Is it because the ones I've made are so close that other people feel intimidated? And don't even get me started in the woman arena. Major downsides of being a male flutist.

1. Many people think you're gay.
2. You're surrounded by women who see you as a big brother and feel obligated to scare off anyone who might be interested in you in the first place.

In Atlanta, I was always doing new stuff with fun people. Here I feel like I'm counting the days until...until... And that sucks! Papa needs a brand new bag.
