Pizza Luce

Preface - I wrote this when I got home from the party and to protect the authenticity of this post, I'm leaving it with all the spelling/grammatical errors!

I went to Pizza Luce tonight. It was a good friends birthday party and we all had way to much to drink. I thought the best thing to do was to have everyone eat. Of course I just watched them all eat the greasy pizza and took bites of the salad I ordered.

There were these guys next to our table. One guy was really attractive but he was with a beautiful girl so I was careful not to flirt too much. I overheard him say, "That cute girl with the green jacket is smiling at me" and I looked over. We made eye contact and he asked me, "Were you smiling at me?".

I'm not quite sure what came over me but I said, "This is a sad night for us...". He asked why and I told him that I was celebrating the loss of my ex. I told him that my ex used to take me here and I wanted to come back to remember him. He got really quite and said, "I'm sorry, I will let you be".

Yes that is what I wanted but then it dawned on me, I was reflecting on a loss and well that place does remind me of him. I know it was wrong of me to say someone died when really then only died in my heart but that was the only way I knew how to describe how I was feeling.
