Not that this is my first obsession, she's just the first one I've had in a writing mood. There is a girl who goes to my church I've known for a long time, well not really. I used to know her a long time ago when she was just a kid, and she was always one of the kindest people I'd ever known, but she wasn't my age and I never made much of an effort to get to know her then. One day she moved away and I was sorry to see her go, but again, it wasn't too big a deal. It's about 6 years later and she moved back and started coming to my church. I didn't recognize her at first, I have a tendency to arrive late and leave early and I came in and she was singing and my first thought was, wow, who ever that new girl is, she is really cute. It didn't even occur to me that I knew her until she smiled. Now first of all it's not too unusual that I didn't recognize her, I'm still recovering from amnesia but she has a beautiful smile, and seeing it made me remember who she was and I was a little surprised. Now she's tall and beautiful, something I never expected from the shy girl I used to know. The next week I went back to church I talked with her briefly and she found out about my amnesia and was surprised that I actually remembered her. Again I had to duck out early so I didn't get a chance to talk with her more and she was gone for the next two weeks which really disappointed me more than I expected. Lately I keep thinking about her (no, not like that...) Why did she come back to Colorado Springs? What does she like? What are her friends like? I can't help but thinking that I'm falling for a complete stranger who is probably not in the least bit interested in me (not that I'm not getting used to that). Maybe I'll call her sometime this week and see if she wants to go hang out, or maybe I'll just kick myself for not calling her, I haven't decided yet.
