My Generation...

So this morning I got a text from my friend Michael Christopher. Included was him informing me of the passing of one of my good friends Grandfather.. and the fact he "signed" her blog.

I don't know WHAT got into me but I let loose a war of words on him.

What is wrong with my generation? Or even so.. what's becoming of other generations? When is it ok to convey information like that over a text message?

First of all, this girl is a good friend of mine. Love her to death. If I find out about her personal life.. it's because she calls me and tells me. I don't go subscribing to my friends blogs to keep updated on their lives.

Second.. do you want some sort of award for posting your condolences on her blog? Are you telling me in some way that since I haven't I should? Or because I haven't.. I don't know? Hell no. Is is THAT hard to write someone an email? You have to post a public showing of sympathy on her Myspace page? Seriously...

Third.. don't get mad at me for not being the one to call YOU and inform YOU of his passing? Do you feel entitled as a friend that I call you whenever one of our mutal Myspace friends goes through tough shit. Thanks for the call about her not attending the convention but this is different. If she wants to tell you she will.

Obviously you don't have her number for a reason.. IT MEANS YOU AREN'T A FRIEND. And no, being on her friends list does not count.

I'm on the verge of deleting my Myspace again. No one cares to call anymore. Everything is a Myspace comment or an email. If you really miss me.. dial my number.

Makes me wonder...

When I die, are people going to come to the funeral?

Or are they just going to post pictures of flowers in my Myspace comments?

Makes you think.
