Isn't it amazing?
How something small can bring you back to a moment in time? I mean I was just sitting there and then suddenly it was the summer of 1990 and I had a big ol smile on my face.
I was sitting out on my porch when it was POURING rain. And that reminded me of that summer. You know that cloud burst type of rains that happens often on summer afternoons? Not a storm, it just dumps hard and then the world can breathe easier after? That happened a lot that summer.
That was definitely one of my favorite summers of my life too. I had the perfect summer romance. We're talking the type that you wanna sing "tell me more tell me more like did he have a car" about. I met him at work and it turned out he was the mutual friend of a friend. He was the perfect guy. Probably still is. He was gorgeous and smart and funny and talented.. *sigh*
We had this amazing relationship that summer. It was perfect. And then we both went back to different colleges and it faded away. He would be the closest thing to "the one that got away". Every now and again he pops into my mind and I wonder how he's doing. I check myspace and facebook every so often to see if he's there, but so far, no luck.
Maybe I'll see him in my dreams tonight. Because watching that rain today reminded me of a day with him where we watched the same type of rain storm together and now he's on my mind. And when he's there... I'm smiling :)

I had a guy like that too. Every once in a while something will remind me of him and I'll wonder what might have been.
