I got to the airport for the big good bye and found out that I got there a full 3 hours early. I called her and found out she left a voicemail telling me that her flight would be arriving at around 1am.
She laughed at me of course and said she would would be there at around midnight since she wanted to chat with me more anyway. When she arrived, we sat on the nearest bench and just yapped away and made little observations about the different people, including a pilot and stewardess who obviously had a little sumthin' sumthin' goin' on! There was gonna be some mile high action going on that night! She noticed he had a ring on, too! Wooo hoo! Scandalous!
Anyway, it was time for her to go and we hugged each other. What started out as a gesture of affection turned into who could break the most ribs. Geez, that woman is strong. Well, a couple of cracked ribs later she walked away and said "This kinda sucks!". I said, "yeah, I know!" THAT'S when it got weird because a few weeks ago I had a dream that almost mirrored this situation exactly, except in the dream it was a train or bus station and it was a totally different girl. Anyway, the girl in the dream said the same thing, which I always thought was odd because "This kinda sucks" was this girl's fave catch phrase. I never told her about the dream. Once again, I have dreamt about the future! This is the fourth time this has happened! Too freaky!
Anyway, I waved good bye and drove home. No tears. No Hollywood ending with me running into the plane and declaring my love for her as passengers do a standing ovation as Micheal Bolton blares in the background. No. None of that bullshit. Just...good bye and a strong urge to eat some pancakes. Maybe later.
So she's gone. Don't know if she was THE ONE™, but she was a pretty strong contender for the role.
She's a good kid.

I can so imagine you running down the airport trying to catch her plane with the Bolton music playing! That's too funny! I can see why you were so impressed with her after I got to talk to her. Her gay German ski instructor story was awesome! LOL!
ReplyDeleteReal shame she's gone, but hopefully the time you spent with her has renewed your faith in women. =)

Nice double post there, Ray!
ReplyDeleteYeah, she's a very impressive woman. It kinda took me by surprise at how quickly we bonded, in fact, it took us both by surprise. But due to circumstances beyond our control, it just wasn't meant to be, but you've heard all this before. I've been trying to cut down on the whole yapping about her thing to spare friends and family alike.
Besides, last thing I need is to clog up blog space with sappy details about our fun times together and rant about how cool I think she is. Heaven forbid that some person I barely know should think I'm being an obsessive weirdo.... but I digress.
Aww. How cute! Here comes the vomit feeling again!
ReplyDeleteAre you SURE you didn't bang this chick??
