December 17-
You track down an old girlfriend.
Yikes. Which
one? My first thought is that the
majority of my ex’s wouldn’t want to speak with me, and try to insult and
accuse me with things from years ago.
And that sounds bad. But in
reality, I think it would be even worse.
From the bits that I’ve seen on facebook, or heard through friends, most
of my ex’s seem like they’re happily married with children, and I wonder if any
of them would even have any brain space dedicated to my memory anymore. My guess is that they would be
surprised to see me, pause for a second to recall a memory, and then smile at
how the memory felt like a different life so long ago. She would say I looked good and ask
what I’ve been up to, but then be distracted by one of her children, and before
I could answer her question, she’d tell me it was good running into me before
politely saying goodbye. I would
be left standing there alone, happy that she found love and children, comfortable
that it wasn’t in God’s plan for us to be together, but alone nonetheless. But alright- I’ll try this exercise…
I track down an old girlfriend…
Claire, Bonnie, Danielle, Alexis, Merri, Paige, Becca,
Kristen, Melanie…
hmm.. no… I’ll save the grave-digging for
another time..
