predictably so, YES, the car show was kind of an arranged meetup.  Except this time he had a friend of his with him so we didn’t exactly hang out.  We texted back and forth.  While walking around the same event, silly I know.  We eventually met up when we were done and walked out together.

Here’s why I’m crazy:  We talked a little, he and his friend said hi to my son.  We walked a little…  When we finally said goodbye there was a look.  I am NOT imagining it.  A look and a linger, and there is no way I imagined this.

So you see this is how it works with us:  I’m ready to be totally over it.  And then something happens – we go snowboarding; we stay up talking online until 3AM; we share one too many inside jokes.  And I forget that I was done with him and the giddy feeling that comes up from deep inside my belly returns, and the flushing in my cheeks, and the smile.  I’m not complaining though, it’s kind of fun to not be in control.
