I left this out of my earlier story most likely because I needed some more time to process. The extended period didn’t bring me to a point of enlightenment or anything of the sort it was just a way for me to not type what I was thinking/feeling out loud… Most reunions set up a little memorial area for classmates no longer with us. Ours was a table with framed yearbook pictures of those who had passed. And on that table sat two of my high school girlfriends. Seeing as there were only three official girls I dated during that time most of my young love life was represented.
It could have been the yearbook pictures taking me back or just a deep gut punch of reality but it had me a bit shook. Even this morning as I took my early morning constitution it was all I could think about. Might be time already to find a new therapist because I am having trouble shaking this one off.
It was also great reliving stories from that part of my life and quite possibly that put me in a strange place as well. I got a little melancholy over time lost with people I really enjoyed and if nothing else came of last weekend it solidified my plan to move back. This time next year I will be in Illinois.
I need to move somewhere with a good walk. I am a full year away and already missing Minnehaha Falls. It was rainy today which means the falls go to work. For the last few weeks it has been kind of sad.
It’s like someone turned off the water. And above really told the story.
But today was a whole different story.
It had some volume. And up top looked downright formidable.
Even from a distance she was putting on a show.
Don’t read anything into this post. I have a metric fuckton of things to complete at work and what little free time I’ve got tends to run down rabbit holes. I will try to put together a more normal post before I leave this weekend.
