Do you remember the sweltering heat the first summer you followed me here? I know it was so long ago. The sun was merciless, and the humidity wrapped us all in a scent of fresh cut grass. We were so young, and so alive. I remember the laundry mat in the middle of July just after your birthday. The air conditioning was cool on our sweaty bodies. We gossiped and chased each other around while we waited for the dryers to stop. I still have those pictures on my phone. Now it's some one elses turn to share those memories with you, and it both kills me and brings me immense joy to know that you can be that  happy with another woman.

Laundry mat Adventures
Do you remember the sweltering heat the first summer you followed me here? I know it was so long ago. The sun was merciless, and the humidity wrapped us all in a scent of fresh cut grass. We were so young, and so alive. I remember the laundry mat in the middle of July just after your birthday. The air conditioning was cool on our sweaty bodies.
