  1. This is the dreamy part that made me miss college and sit on my couch and stare out the window for awhile. The rest is devastating:

    “It was one of the best summers I have ever had. We bought matching ’70s roller skates from the thrift store and rode around parking lots late at night, his car stereo blasting Thin Lizzy or Pavement. We’d sneak into bars and order cocktails like sloe gin fizzes and Rumple Minze and then dance around like maniacs. We agreed that we were soul mates because we both loved coconut cream pie, salami with mustard, and Camel Lights soft packs. We made paintings, mixed tapes and fanzines, and planned for a future in which we’d always be doing that: making things together. We even started our own little band, just the two of us, sitting in his bedroom, writing silly pop songs about Vespas that we’d then record onto his four-track. In August, when I had to go back to Oberlin, Patrick cried. He didn’t want me to go.”
