Conversations in the Night

I'm really writing this because of a small whim...but in fact I really have no clue why I'm writing this at all. Its 1:57AM (at least, I'm starting this at 1:57AM) on a Monday morning. I have no school, no obligations just...me doing my own thing. I did stay up playing games, yes, but I've had my share of fun (I wager 2 hours is enough) but...something is lacking.

I cant put my finger on it really. I just read a Facebook status that said "Late night conversation/discussions ftw!" that was posted 55 minutes ago, at 1:05AM. As I said in an earlier post, I love late nights. But...late night conversations are basically the apex (Am I usin this right?) of what I love about late nights.

You see, I've had my fair share of late night conversations. Most if not all were during summer/some other holiday and they were great. Sadly, the most recent late night conversation was last summer during Elite, that lasted until 1AM. I'm sad that this was the last conversation I had, despite it having no substance whatsoever and consisted of me and him just...talking about nothing while I played vidya gaems.

Yes, I can talk to people over the internet (I frequent forums and thus I talk to people from all sorts of nifty places) but... its not the same. Dont get me wrong, I do like talking with people regardless, and late night conversations via the internets are great. But...something about it just isnt on par with talking with someone.

Oddly enough, usually my late night talks have no substance (I keep using substance... I feel so smert) and are kinda just mindless drabble. I remember way back then (last year in the summer) I went to visit my friend Naoki's house and we stayed up until 6AM talking/playing games. Wanna know what we talked about? We basically took out the yearbook and did a guy's rendition of "would you tap that?" Yea, I'm not too proud of that, but we also just talked about school, and moving, and our lives in general. It was a profound experience that consisted of...nothing.

What is saddening though, is that I rarely ever have anyone to talk to at this time of night. Now, this really isnt a "yo pity party for Aaron in da hizzouseeee, lets get on AIM or call him at 2AM and talk about life yoooo" sort of deal. Although if someone did read this and was all "Yo Aaron stays up at this time of night? What a playa, maybe I should call him one time" (yea, sorry its 2:11AM, these supposed quotes arent great ok?) and you proceed to... well then thats all great too.

I pretty much deviated from that last one, but yea, I rarely have anyone to talk to. (that lives near me or can call me without getting destroyed by long distance calls) I do have a friend, albiet I havent talked to her in awhile, who did stay up with me... but those days are long gone. I remember her calling me at like 11PM (Back in the day when I was freshman and could sleep early, yeaaaa) and I'd be like "wut" and then she'd just talk to me for an hour or two then hang up.

Great times.

So if you're ever up at 2AM and you want someone to talk to, gimme a call. Then we can make a night full of conversation, laughter (possibly, I dont guarantee you'll laugh) and most likely, one of us falling asleep on each other.

We dont need no walkies, nope, no walkie talkies
Dunno if I'll make it through this winter without you by side...
