Little Moments

I talked to Patrick today. He's THAT guy for me. The one guy I can sit in silence with and still feel at peace. The one who reads my thoughts before I even think to give voice to them. That one who really appreciates me for me...quirks and all. And the quirks somehow make me more appealing to him. He sees the secret me that I work so hard to hide. He also lives 3 hours away.

'Little Moments' by Brad Paisley makes him think of me. We laughingly say it was written for me....especially the part that says..."It's the little imperfections, it's the sudden change in plans when she misreads the directions and we're lost, but holding hands. Yeah, I live for little moments like that."

Our first date...I got lost. Our second date...I got lost. It's become a running joke.

So today I visited one of my locations...and on my way home I accidentally exited to the interstate heading south instead of north. And I knew where I was supposed to go. Normally, the perfectionist in me would kick in and get worked up. Not today.

Today I called Patrick. I didn't realize how much I've missed his voice, his laugh.

Just that laughter at telling him what I did....It was like getting a hug from a long distance friend.
