strings and faulty internet connections

i've been chatting recently with numerous people. it's nice... i enjoy making random connections and sharing parts of our lives together, even if they are carefully selected parts.

one person, in particular, messaged me through myspace. he's been sharing poetry he's written, asking my opinion and in general sharing his thoughts and views on life. unfortunately this boy, patrick, contacted me at a very hectic time of year. i was not only the end of finals, but also the beginning of christmas. anyway, i haven't been able to talk to him as much nor as in depth as i would like. my plan was to write him when i got to my parents house, when things were more settled and i get dive deep into conversation. but, what have i found? for whatever reason, while the internet works, it seems to be blocking both facebook and myspace from working properly. i have no other way of communicating with this boy, patrick, since i only just started talking to him through myspace messages. i was already horrible at being timely as it was, and he already had doubts that i thought him absurb and a nuisance, which i tried to assuade him of, but now i'm sure he thinks the worst. he's an intense, passionate boy and i do enjoy reading his words, be it poetry, prose, or general chatter, and patrick, i apologize so much for not writing. i've been trying, i swear.

so really, this is to tell you patrick that you're in my thoughts, and i will write to you as soon as i am able.

is it silly to create a bond with someone you've never met? well too bad. he's an interesting sort.
