It begins

Saturday Bruce and Antonio are moving the big sofa over to Amy's, and the deconstruction of my life begins in earnest. Time to start collecting boxes. Time to start throwing stuff out. Time to see more of you while I can.

I'm enjoying being with you so much right now. Thank you for letting us BE happy together and not sit and stew about our impending separation. It will be ok. The universe is unfolding as it should.

EXCEPT tonight I broke the switch on my headlights and now I can't turn the damn things on. Grrr. I called Dean the Handsome Housecall Mechanic but couldn't get him on the phone. Fingers crossed he can come and fix them tomorrow.

There's a certain metaphysical aspect to my inoperative headlights -- not being able to see where you're going and all that, since I can't right now -- driving in the dark -- just jumping off the cliff into the night and hoping there's water down there! 

Speaking of which, I recently purchased a bathing cap with pink appliqued flowers all over it to go with my pink bathing suit and keep the chlorine and the tropical sun off my auburn locks. I'm going to be Esther Williams by the pool. Which, by the way, is always lightly sprinkled with large pink blossoms off the overhanging trees. Backstroking through the blossoms in a pink-flowered bathing cap seems exactly right, don't you think? 

Or an excellent place to start, anyway.

Things to do

I'm addicted to Scrabble. Play me on Facebook. Do it now because the application does not work in Asia. Seriously.

Other things you should do soon:

- Think about things of mine you might want and let me know -- I'm keeping a list
- Make me a drink
- Mark your calendar for July 17 -- I'll be having some sort of Bon Voyage party
- Start planning your visit to Bangkok
- Kiss somebody just to add to the joy in the universe
- Download Skype so we'll be able to talk face to face -- I'm going to miss you terribly

Hello, darling!

Hello, darling --

You'll never guess -- I'm going to Asia! Just for a short while. Ok, a year. Simply a longish sort of vacation, really. I'll think of you the whole time! Besides, how can you miss me if I don't go away?

My schedule, as it stands:
- Moving out of the Falcon at the end of June
- Camping with Amy until mid-July
- Bon Voyage party July 17
- Departure July 19

I absolutely need to see you as much as possible before I leave. Call me. Mwah! xo -- a
