I remember the first day I saw that whirlwind of a woman. OMG! What have we here? Look at her, my god she's frikin awesome. Jesus, have mercy. OK, whooooa boy, play it cool. Duck that, I'm going to talk to her, now. Hi, my name's Steven, who are you? Gayle? That's nice, so what class are you taking, nursing? Yeah, me too, first day jitters you know.
And so the story begins. I had never fallen so deeply for a girl before but what can I say, she was amazing. I smile everytime I think of her even now today. 36-25-36 standing 5ft 11in, I was in love. I swear she could have been Julia Roberts taller twin sister with that smile and that cackling laugh.
She called me one night and I remember the exact words, "you know, sometimes a woman just needs to feel the comforts of a man, do you know what I'm saying? " then she just hung up. I was out the door in a flash, got pulled over on my bike doing 115mph up highway 77. I showed the trooper her picture and told him what she said, he chuckled and told me to "get the hell outta here" with no ticket. True story!
I had so many crazy conversations with myself over that girl. None of them I listened to because I would have done anything to be with her. She owned me. That was our undoing. So yes, keep up the good self talk, I hope it serves you well, but be careful of the whirlwind.
(sigh) god I miss her... I hope she is doing well.
