One of my favorite things to do on a weekend is go to brunch.  I love almost any kind of breakfast food you put in front of me.  Unfortunately, brunch is the one meal I hate eating alone.  I couldn't care less about eating lunch or even dinner alone.  I love to people watch, and I really enjoy my alone time.  Brunch is a different story.
Today, for example, I wanted nothing more than to know that someone would be joining me for breakfast.  That's one thing I miss about KC.  I have several people that I am absolutely certain would drop anything to eat breakfast with me.  Meghann and I were talking about that when I called her today.  Breakfast is a new level with friends.  When you can almost count on eating at least one weekend breakfast with a friend, you know you have a very solid friendship.  
As I was scrolling through my phone today, I realized that the only "breakfast" people I have are in KC or DC.  I believe Alex would be a breakfast friend, but she works most weekends.  Sabina would too, but she's married and busy with school.  Other than that, I didn't have anyone else.  :(  I didn't let that stop me, though.  I went into Snooze and sat at the bar.  Didn't really feel like reading the paper, so I just did some people watching.  I was surprised at myself at how jealous I was of everyone in there.  I was the only person alone.  It didn't matter whether it was a couple who had obviously spent their morning lounging in bed, then finally deciding to go get breakfast, or just a few friends who wanted to talk about their night.  I was jealous.  Actually, I was more jealous of the couples.  This is the first time in almost a year that I've been jealous of a couple.  I suppose I should take that as a sign that maybe I'm getting close to ready for serious dating again.  It just sucks, you know?  I'm having a blast in Denver with my friends and a boy, and I'm leaving in a little over a month.  Why does it always work that way?  Right before you move is when you start meeting really cool people and having a great time.  It figures, huh?
