it was then that i would see you. standing there, drink in hand, smack in the middle of a 110 degree steamy basement bar. you would be dressed in your corduroy "blazer" (because it has pockets where I put the things I want). i would squeal with delight. then i would wrap my arms around you and give you a fierce hug. you would squeeze me back. we would pick up our typical banter as if it hadn't been 142 days since i'd seen you. in person it was short and sweet. a rib here, a rib there. the ever exchange of hair (or Hair).
now forever.
i will miss your genius humor.
i feel certain when i make it to where you are, our pattern won't skip a beat.
though i rather hope you will have lost the ponytail. [grin]
