Changes

Last Tuesday while I was at the doctor for five and half hours and I had plenty of time to sit and think about stuff.
Of course, there were tons of things to think about and I was quite busy letting my mind roam away into mindless thoughts. But, after being there for nearly two hours, my mind grew restless, as did my body, and I got up and decided to go out to my car and get my iPod because I was absolutely getting bored (Plus, the nurses told me it was good to get up and walk around every once and a while so that the Barium I had drank would continue to move into my lower abdomen, so that the x-rays they were taking would show up better). Anyways, while I was walking by the check out area of the office, I stopped and talked to a girl I went to high school with and who worked there. She had some really informative news about how one of my best friends and girls that I really liked forever, was pregnant (don’t worry; she got married over the summer to one of my friends). Well the news just blew me away! I couldn’t believe it because it just sounded so weird to me. But really, it’s very normal and I don’t know why I reacted to it so strongly. It’s weird because for some strange reason I still feel like I am young and innocent and don’t have friends that are already getting married, and PREGNANT. But, when I went back to sit in the waiting room I was just pondering my life and listening to my iPod, the strangest thing ever happened. “The Times they are a Changing” by Bob Dylan came up on my iPod, and as I sat and listened, I had an epiphany. I really can’t describe everything about it, but it was great. I’ve got more to talk about this later on, so check back pretty soon and I’ll fill you in.
