Hey J.
Every time I am in a car, I am reminded of all the trips we took together going nowhere. God, we loved just driving and driving, not really knowing where we were going to end up. I think we just loved the company, you know?
Tonight I was remembering the time we drove all the way to Whitby and back. Then I was thinking about the time we drove all over Oregon together for 3 days, watched a wedding and then just drove around. Remember that hideous snow storm all over Montreal? I think we drove in that for 3 hours! It was crazy. Of course my favourite was the one where we drove to St. Louis and back and we played the animal alphabet game. Yes I know, I resorted to el gato and I know that it was my sly little smile that let that one go, but I also remember fiercely debating over xenopus and consulting the computer when we got home. Remember driving around Carmel and laughing so hard when we realized that I had no film in the camera but we had spent hours and hours taking pictures??? What was that???
The most memorable ride? When we were driving home from Yosemite and you asked me to move with you, come home with you after you leave San Fran. Had the window been left open, I think I would have flown right out. I was in shock.
You have always left me in shock and pure pleasure.
I have always loved you with all that I have inside my heart. It has always been yours.
And now you're gone and I am left here with an empty car.
I realized that all of our road trips really came down to one thing. It was just in that moment we were together. Then somehow, after the ride was over....
Well, I think this sums it up best...
