March 05 | Invisible George
When Melissa was around six or seven, she was actively involved with this guy named George. He was her imaginary friend.

She would whisper something in George's ear every five minutes, and the two of them would burst into giggles. I never witnessed this, though she did make sure to frequently remind me of his coolness and my lack thereof.

I often tried to sit on top of himwhile he and Melissa were sitting somewhere doing something together in order to squash him. He was too quick for me.

The biggest thing I remember about George was that he floated above her bed. She told me once that he didn't like sleeping with lots of dolls and stuffed animals; he refuse to sleep on her bed.

I was always a little weirded out at the thought of an invisible boy floating over her bed just staring down at her. Perhaps he stared at the ceiling or the wall instead of down at the bed.

I could never imagine what he looked like or how old he was, and Melissa refused to answer my questions. 'It doesn't matter,' she would always tell me. I wonder what happened to old George...

Going to bed after posting this, I remembered that Melissa had thought the song 'George of the Jungle' was about her George.

Dude, I totally have an invisible friend named George also. There might be a possibility that they're one in the same, you never know. Did he have brownish blonde hair and blue eyes? If so, then it could be!

But then again I might be on something or people think I am at this exact moment in time.
