Coming Home - 2009
Just a little background. Patti is my ex-wife. She and I lost our virginity to each other. We have remained very close even though our divorce became final in 1999.
Patti came back to Washington state to visit family and friends.
We had been communicating via email and instant messenger, and talked about trying to get together for at least a day, maybe more, while she was in town. Patti stayed with her aunt Karen, out in Orting. She rented a car so she could get around without relying on others.
Our original plan was to rent a Hotel room for a night so we could spend some quality time together without worrying about interruptions. That plan went out the window quickly as her friends and family put great demands on her to spend time with all of them.
After she arrived in town, she picked me up on my way home from work. She was waiting for me at the Auburn Sounder Train station. Even though I hadn't seen her in a few years, when I saw her, it was like she had only been away on vacation and was coming home to me!
