Random Memories

“Time stands still best in moments that look suspiciously like ordinary life.” – Brian Andres

They hit me out of nowhere, and sometimes I type them on here:

• The night of my high-school graduation, I won $75 (may have been more) in Sonic gift certificates in a silent auction. Michael and I felt like we hit the jackpot! We spent all summer at the river, with stops at Sonic to get everything from slushies to hotdogs, tater tots to onion rings. It was simple…it was perfect…it was the summer of 2003.
• The French Werewolf Movie….our secret
• The trailer park in Florida…another one just for us.
• There was time in Alaska, it was pouring so I ran in for umbrellas. You took forever. I stood outside impatiently. You finally showed up. I was a “bit” peeved. You reached into the backseat and pulled out my favorite…fried okra. I love you.
