Today the glow of my vacation was superseded by the realities of life.\u00a0 Work and kids reminding me of my responsibilities.<\/strong><\/span> Don’t get me wrong, I’m much more relaxed and non-stressed through all those tasks I do.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

But sometimes I have moments where I wish I was back at Coachella.\u00a0 My mind kept drifting off to memories of the weekend which is starting to feel like an eon ago.\u00a0\u00a0 Which makes last Thursday feel like months ago. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

And today as I was fondly remembering my time there I realized one of my favorite parts wasn’t seeing Vampire Weekend or Muse or Frank Taylor or Hockey or Devo. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

It was sitting next to a shirtless, very sexy man.\u00a0 While he was lying on the grass beside me, napping.\u00a0 Letting my fingers play where ever they wanted along his body.\u00a0 Watching him and kissing him whenever the desire struck me to do so.\u00a0 With wonderful music playing and the sun warm and relaxing. \u00a0 In a crowd of fellow music lovers, ganja mixing with the smell of grass cuttings.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
