Communication

Lately these days I don't really talk to people like I used to. So far I only talk to one person and there's really only one reason for that.
They have a conversation with me like a human being.
A lot of my friends kind of just either don't have anything to say or aren't interested in saying much of anything. If I have something I want to say, if I told them they'd maybe nod in response giving me an 'ah' or an 'I see' rather then any kind of response about the subject. Granted I do the same thing, but mostly because I can't think of anything to say unless they ask me. And I'd be willing to think about it if they want...but mostly I just want to be able to have a conversation where all of my thoughts roll off my tongue and are caught and thrown back in a game of catch.
Suddenly I see the appeal of blogs for people who have ideas they want to get off their chest.
I'm in a bit of a funk I guess, my friends have been fairly quiet though they are still my great friends, but I want more friends to talk with. More people I can interact with, get to know and see more about. Trouble is I'm generally shy and quiet because I don't like the idea that I would go to someone, say "Hey, would you be interested in being friends?" and them going, "No, not really. Why would I want to be friends with you? No wait, don't answer that, I don't care." to which I'd be like "...Ow, that's mean..."
I guess I could try commenting more on art, though I have a hard time coming up with something to say other then "I like this piece of art" which everyone says...and I wouldn't feel original, or I would feel like I was giving too generic of a response. Especially if I said the same thing about every art piece I saw, just saying I like it to everything.
That and most people I see that I like their personality of are usually people who are popular artists, or look like their popular artists and have like 50 people that are interested in them, so I always feel like if I tried to add myself in there I'd just either be wasting time or wouldn't be taken seriously or that there just wouldn't be enough time to share with that person to really become friends, we'd be more like acquaintances and what I'd like is to have friends.
So...those are my 2 cents for now. In the past I never could get into this blogging thing, but I think I could start to get into it.
