The List

Kiss In The Rain

As a general rule of thumb, throughout this I will not be naming names or calling anyone out. That's not what this is about. This is about me. This is about my list and my journey over the next year. That being said, actual names will be left out or changed.

One of the first things I crossed off of the list was kissing in the rain. This was directly after I had a one night stand. That's right! The thing I wanted to leave off because I thought NEVER in a million years would I do it happened. Should I have to substitute out any of the list it will be for that and I will recant it.

Kissing in the rain really wasn't that great. It was nice enough, don't get me wrong, but it wasn't life changing. I love the rain. I do many things in the rain. So kissing in the rain, while nice... Because I was in a beautiful summer drizzle, on a beautiful summer night... Was not that bi of an accomplishment.

It happened on my back porch and was basically forced upon the other person. It was a, 'Hey! I have this list and this is on it,' kind of moment. Not to say that it wasn't a good kiss, it wasn't bad! But it also wasn't romantic by any means.

That was the initial 'kiss in the rain' check it off the list. The second time was a little more romantic, because it was in a more romantic situation. I will recant that one as well, because I feel like if I hadn't been so adamant about getting the list done as quickly as possible, this would have been the one that counted.

I randomly ran into a guy I went to school with one night at a bar downtown. We talked for hours, about everything since high school. It was nice, catching up. We decided at some point to got to the strip club, however did not take into account the time. Once we arrived they had already stopped serving alcohol and we decided to just go back to hi house and hot tub while we drank more.

When we got back to his house I played with his dogs, a rambunctious pitt bull and a calm older dog, for a while. During this time the Pitt bull managed to bust my lip open and scratch my face. None of which was intentional on her part, of course.

After some play time with the dogs we might moved the party outside to the hot tub, where it happened to be raining and where the second and better 'kiss in the rain" happened.
