It is taking longer and longer to decide who goes. And I'm only down to 228. Still would like to eliminate 70 or so, but we'll see how that goes. It's getting difficult, because I'm loathe to delete any of my many-many-many family members, or my closest friends, or, well, anyone who will create drama.
So today, it's the younger sister of a friend that I never stayed in touch with. The friend himself has been too "busy" to communicate, and lives very much in the moment. He is friends with the people he sees every day, even if those friendships are limited by the amount of time he stays in a particular location. Out of sight, out of mind. (I guess I'm revealing that he'll probably go too, but nostalgia stays my hand.) And today's deletion is one more step removed, and has a huge friend list, and is one of the "nevers." Our history reveals that I've sent her a birthday message once upon a time -- but that's it. See? I'm feeling better about choosing her already.
