1. Looks like I'll be here all afternoon with nobody bothering me. hehehe
2. I found a place to have lunch (weather permitting) in case I don't have an appointment. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or not. This feels a bit like I'm back in high school (and that would be a bad thing).
3. I just realized I've been seeing you every summer and winter for the past 3 years but not this winter. And I also realized that we participated in TEN events together (So I met you more often than some people who live in the same country as I do). And then I realized how much I miss you. I really, really miss you, a lot. Making you take a horribly long walk when I already knew you were tired just so you would wait at the bus stop with me and then feeling bad about it felt better than taking the same walk without you. I miss that walk, and the passionate, earnest discussions we had about anything and everything. I miss walking with you on crowded streets, and then walking into an island of serenity, and then walking back out, listening to you complain about stupid teachers, and you nodding at my "I like being selfish" statement. I miss that crazy ride we had, driving all over the city just to look for a specific pack of cigarettes and a specific Stbcks tumbler (and neither one was for ourselves!). I actually miss watching you get pissed-drunk and refusing to go home, tongue-tied and speaking jibberish (yes, I remember it all.. I was sober, remember?).
Spending two consecutive seasons without seeing you made me think back on all we went through, and left me wondering, where will we be and what will we be doing next year, in five years, in ten, twenty years..?
I hope at some point in the course of those years I can have a mojito with you in Cuba.
