My dearest June Bug

My buddie’s last day was today, it was very sad to see him leave but he got a great offer elsewhere so I aint mad at him. Jim was really great to work with we joined the company at the same time and we learned together, we smoked together, we carpooled together we ate lunch together. My fondest memory of June bug, as I fondly call him, was when he called me 2am one day, wasted from drinking and I was like…the hell? He goes “hey B, don’t bother picking me up this morning, I am not gonna be able to make it to work” I was like “June…. its Saturday, we don’t have work this morning!” I never let him live that one down. Jim is officially my first white friend, well not counting the 7th grade Alicia Broadhurst, she was a mess, had snakes for pets and always wore black nail polish, but I digress, so I am really gonna miss working with Jim mehn!!!! Yesterday I organized a going away luncheon for him at Bennigans the turn out was really nice. I am really happy for Jim but bummed that he’s leaving. There goes another one of my confidant. It is amazing how people randomly come in and out of our lives. I mean folks you are cool with now may not necessarily be the ones you are cool with in 5 years and the ones from 5 years ago have somehow fallen off your radar. I don’t know if I am alone in my thoughts but I truly value my friendships and despite my issues I have kept my closest friends over the years and made some new close ones. So Thelma, Moji, Remi, Simmy, Bisola, Imade, Dayo, Lola, Elisa, Bukky and E.I…have I told you lately that I love yall?
