Erase Memories

I realized today that I am in the process of actively erasing bad memories. Since my breakup I have been overloaded with memories of the relationship, both wonderful and horrible. Since I am living in the same city as I did in college these memories flash back quite often. Yes I know I live in Alton now, and not Clayton, but just pretend with me...
This summer, right after the end, all I could remember was the bad times. Which I suppose was a blessing. But then after a few months the good memories were coming back to me to. And for the most part they are sparked by a restaurant, or mall, or park etc. in St Louis.
Now I am in the next stage. I am revisiting these places one by one. Not on purpose necessarily, but none the less I am going back to them. The first place was the Mills Mall. I have a horrible memory from almost that entire mall. It's huge too! And last weekend I went there with B and his brothers to bowl at Lucky Strike. I had a great time, and now I hope that when I think about that place that it is more likely that I will remember the good and not the bad. I walked around the place by myself, before everyone got there, and tried to remember all the old memories. Again both good and bad, but try to forget the bad ones. I don't want them haunting me anymore. Actually they don't haunt, it is more like they hide and then smack me in the face when I am not ready.
But I am going to maybe erase a couple more memories this weekend in Clayton. In with the good and out with the bad.
