Nothing Could Change What You Mean To Me, Oh, There's Lots That I Could Say, But Just Hold Me Now, Cause Our Love Will Light The Way
--"Heaven (Bryan Adams cover)", Do (Dominique van Hulst)
Patrick (6:53:28 PM): Olive Oyl.
Toby (9:53:36 PM): The cartoon character
Toby (9:53:37 PM): ?
Toby (9:53:38 PM): I don’t see it.
Toby (9:53:46 PM): She’s a beanpole and not pretty at all.
Toby (9:54:01 PM): Popeye must’ve had other chances. Other girls he could’ve chased after.
Patrick (6:54:15 PM): Sometimes It really isn’t a choice. Sometimes it’s just fate.
Toby (9:54:25 PM): yeah seriously!
Toby (9:54:38 PM): yeah, when I met Jack I had no idea we’d hit it off.
Toby (9:54:46 PM): We had a lot of critics.
Toby (9:54:51 PM): Not that anyone has the right to judge.
Patrick (6:59:12 PM): And that’s fate right there.
Patrick (6:59:33 PM): It really isn’t something you understand, it’s something you feel deep down inside of you.
Toby (9:59:31 PM): RIGHT!
Toby (9:59:34 PM): I knew it was right.
Toby (9:59:35 PM): I just knew it.
Toby (9:59:37 PM): hahaha
Patrick (6:56:06 PM): That’s like Popeye, to him Olive Oyl just looks right for whatever reason she works for him.
Toby (9:56:15 PM): I get what you’re saying now.
Patrick (6:56:40 PM): Olive Oyl, right?
Toby (9:56:37 PM): haha i feel ignorant. I never understood why they had him paired with such an unattractive creature as her. Now I see it was some sort of life lesson.
Patrick (6:56:59 PM): Don’t feel too bad. Most people don’t.
Toby (9:57:52 PM): You are a wise man.
Toby (9:57:56 PM): I know what you’re saying though.
Toby (9:58:05 PM): People just click.
Patrick (6:58:29 PM): Or they don’t and think that they do. That’s even worse.
Toby (9:58:39 PM): I try to give people that benefit.
Toby (9:58:40 PM): Of the doubt.
Patrick (6:59:08 PM): You should.
Patrick (7:00:50 PM): My theory is that everybody has a type that they get along with. And it doesn’t matter how hard you try. You can’t escape it.
Toby (10:01:11 PM): Like a preference
Toby (10:01:28 PM): Or compatibility
Toby (10:01:41 PM): when you have a list of qualities you look for in somebody
Patrick (7:02:12 PM): Not exactly.
Toby (10:02:31 PM): off the mark again.
Patrick (7:03:04 PM): I think it isn’t like take-out—pick from column A, then from columb B.
Toby (10:04:01 PM): I like take-out. I wish it were like that.
Toby (10:04:17 PM): I wish I could order up somebody with all those perfect qualities. In one person that might be overwhelming.
Patrick (7:09:09 PM): To me, it’s more like a craving. You don’t know what you want when you want it, but you know what you want when you see it.
Toby (10:09:58 PM): Totally!
Toby (10:09:58 PM): haha
Patrick (7:07:24 PM): You have this general concept of what you like.
But in actuality it all rests on gut instinct. Something inside of you knows if you’re going to get a long with a person. A soulmate is recognized by sight instantly.
It’s just like you said. From the outside your boyfriend wasn’t who you wanted, but when you started talking to him more, it clicked.
Patrick (7:07:37 PM): You made the natural choice rather than the intellectual.
Toby (10:07:34 PM): yeah you could say that
Patrick (7:08:47 PM): Actually, what you mentioned before kind of fits us. When I first came across you I thought we were going to get along famously and that was only based on the type of people I already knew I liked toalking to.
Toby (10:09:10 PM): woah
Toby (10:09:15 PM): that’s weird.
Toby (10:09:27 PM): its true though. Something gets easier to talk to certain people.
Patrick (7:10:11 PM): What can I say? We were just meant to get along.
I always seem to go for that certain intelligent down-to-earth type, which you strike me as.
Toby (10:10:24 PM): too true.
Toby (1:10:31 PM): I don’t like to be too flashy and I’m too smart for my own good.
Toby (10:10:41 PM): But don’t go thinking you have me figured out all that easily.
Toby (10:10:53 PM): I’ll surpirse you when you least expect. That’s what I think anyway.
Patrick (7:11:43 PM): I’m not saying I have this psychic ability about you. But something in me recognizes something in you that’s familiar and comforting.
I don’t mean that in a weird way, but I always chat up the same type of people. People who care about things.
Toby (10:12:15 PM): I’d like to think I don’t live frivously. I like to contemplate rather than just go.
Toby (10:12:17 PM): yah
Toby (10:12:19 PM): yeah
Patrick (7:13:30 PM): That's what I thought too. You didn’t strike me as somebody who just flits by nonchalantly. You move and speak with purpose.
If you were to ever do something just for fun, at the very least, you’d reflect on it later. That’s exactly what I do. I can’t help it.
It’s people like that that I have a healthy respect and think highly of.
Toby (10:13:57 PM): that makes me feel really good
Toby (10:19:23 PM): I’m always worried that people think I’m stuck-up or trying to act superior. I don’t. I guess I take things seriously that most people wouldn’t.
Patrick (7:17:23 PM): You should. People let things pass by too easily. If more people took the time to really study things they’d get more enjoyment out of them.
It's like I said in a message I sent to my friend. I think there’s only a few people I would go to their funerals if they died. You could be one of those few.
I don’t know—contemplative people are just the best type of people I’ve found. They get things more and they put more stock into the world around them. They don’t let things pass them by. They scoop everything up.
Toby (10:18:48 PM): aww well i hope you dont have to attend my funeral any time soon and I don’t have to go to yours. That would be sad.
Toby (10:18:57 PM): haha i dont know im still young... Too young to live too seriously.
Toby (10:19:06 PM): i just kind of have always been this way
Toby (10:19:17 PM): I like knowing, feeling, and being sure of everything before I do anything.
Patrick (7:20:35 PM): I appreciate that in you.
That’s my whole point with Popeye. People see something of themselves in those they associate with. Something about Olive reminds him of himself. You remind me of what I like about myself.
Toby (10:21:22 PM): aww That’s making me blush.
Patrick (7:22:12 PM): I know it’s kind of dumb, but in a way we were guaranteed to be friends.
Toby (10:22:50 PM): i don’t think it’s dumb. I don’t start out not wanting to be friends with someone. I don’t put anyone on some sort of blacklist. You have to earn that distinction.
Patrick (7:23:26 PM): May I never get onto that blacklist.
Toby (10:24:04 PM): hahaha yeah well people have been known to be reinstated.
Toby (10:24:16 PM): i wouldn’t worry.
Patrick (7:24:33 PM): Crisis averted.
Patrick (7:24:40 PM): I'm glad you could clear that up.
Toby (10:24:32 PM): Watch. In a few months you’ll be begging me to leave you alone.
Patrick (7:24:53 PM): Never.
Toby (10:25:03 PM): I must warn you about something before going any further.
Patrick (7:25:17 PM): What?
Toby (10:25:24 PM): I don’t look like Olive Oyl.
Patrick (7:25:38 PM): LOL
Yours Swimmingly,
