aaron and i were talking last night and came to an interesting deduction. it all started when we were recalling the first time i met our friend, andy. andy instantly got my jokes and laughed at all appropriate times, which may not seem like much, but it is. especially since he just met me. most people don't understand my humor right away. i can be quite sarcastic at times, however, peoples first impression of me is one of sincerity and earnestness. so they misunderstand my sarcasm as sincerity and leave thinking i'm super nice. aaron however, has the exact opposite happen to him. his first impression usually leaves one thinking he is super sarcastic, so even if he says sometime sincere, people will mistake it for mockery. the truth of the matter is that both of us are much more middle ground than we appear. interesting, no?
after our discussion, we skyped andy and had a fun conversation. it was 11pm for us and we were drinking wine. it was 11am for him and he was at work. he is (i think) the only friend of ours that is exactly 12 hours apart from us, which makes for convenient skype dates.
knitting pics to come soon. promise. also check out wech and barbs go south for some pics of our new place in wellington.
