I felt Hallmark, as I like to say, standing there in an almost abandoned parking lot with my arms wrapped around a girl who doesn't quite realize how beautifully she really is.

Seven hours. Seven spectacular hours together and we still can't bring ourselves to say good night.

I didn't want her to leave and she wanted to stay there, for perhaps eternity. Who knows? I felt the same way, but in my mind I knew her parents wouldn't look too kindly on the fellow they've never met who kept their daughter out so late. In the end, I had to make myself make her leave. She agreed that it was time for her to leave, but she still didn't want to. She said she knew she had to be getting home, yet her feet didn't start walking to her car and her eyes never shifted from their gaze into mine. For the briefest of moments, time froze and everything felt right. That's what I like to call Hallmark. Where worry and stress melt away and joy and happiness remains.

Funny how life works.

I went to Six Flags seeking thrills and excitement. I'll grant you that I found my fair share of those things along with something unexpected. The question isn't 'What did I find?'. It's 'Who did I find?'.

The answer is I found a girl that I clicked with almost immediately. Actually, scratch that. More like we found each other. Girls like this one are few and far between. I could probably go on forever weaving a beautiful tapestry of words, but let's keep it simple.

I like the girl a lot.
