Step away from the Cookie...
And I don't mean the tasty treat. Or maybe I do?? ;)
I have spent today searching the web for all things David Cook.
I have rewatched his coronation on youtube several times. I have read a bajillion posts on TWOP. I read or watched every piece of media coverage I could find. I even added him as a myspace friend.
I even love the super cheesy rainbows song that he sings. The song sucks, but his voice gives me goosebumps. And I know that the rest of his stuff doesn't and won't suck. (I downloaded Analog Heart too) 
Everything I watch and read makes him just seem like such a great guy. Wouldn't it be awesome if that is actually true? I just hope that he really doesn't start dating Kimberme Caldwell! If I can't have him, I at least want him with someone not so freaking annoying. But maybe he would consider an older woman? ;)
And now I'm going to go watch him on Leno :)
After that I'll stop. For tonight. Maybe...

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 :)

More proof that life isn't fair
So last week I had a dream that a friend of mine was pregnant. Yesterday I asked her. Her response? "Thanks for ruining the surprise!"
This is not the first time I've done this. It's not even the 5th time I've done this. And it's not just with people I'm around, Ive done it with people who I lived in different states from. I've freaked out more than one person with this. If it was just women I see daily, then we could blame the time I did working at a Gymboree store. Working there I got good at telling if someone was having a boy or girl based on how they were carrying. No, it's not just an old wives tale! But like I said, I've done it to friends who I don't see regularly.
Sometimes I have a dream, other times it just pops into my head.
So what's the unfair part?
If I am blessed with a gift of precognition, why can't it be for lottery numbers?
Anyway, congrats to my friend who's going to be a mommy!! I'm really happy for you! And I'm sorry I ruined your surprise ;)
