<human>: As we begin to reflect on the end of the year, one or two days/experiences HAVE to stand out! What was your most awesome/memorable experience of 2012? 

This year, my best friend moved to the other side of the country. To make things even worse, I had bought us tickets to see Rammstein in Denver, to which she could no longer road trip with me/attend. 

Last year, my ex happened to move to Denver. We remained in occasional contact since he left, and were always on good terms after our breakup.
Turns out Rammstein is his favorite band, and he could never afford a ticket for himself. I had actually learned about the show from him. 
So, throwing propriety and awkwardness to the wind (I just REALLY could NOT miss this concert...a member from my other favorite band had also just been announced as a surprise opener), I offered him a deal: my extra (floor) ticket for his couch for a couple of nights. 
He was more than happy to oblige. 

After the (amazing) show, we went out for some beers/conversation. 
I don't want to be trite/cliche and say an old/lost love was reconnected: it was, plain and simple, just a night of absolutely incredible bonding, both emotionally and physically. 
(Also, the 24-hour burrito joint by his apartment is the sex. This coming from a New Mexican.)

By the next morning, two people woke up next to someone they realized they could never live without, in one way or another.

To this day he has become my best friend, my long-distance....something, and just someone I can't stop talking with/thinking about (I'm a teacher. I've even texted him in class. Tsk). And it's such a great feeling. 
Whether he remains my best friend or becomes my eventual twin soul, I'm just stoked to have him back in my life, and I owe it to this trip and this night.

Give me a shortened version of the text
<bot>: Solo road trip to Denver, met up with ex, saw our favorite band and fell back in love with each other all on the same night.
