Hourglass
Today is:
- 19 days since my arrival in Chicago
- One month exactly since I broke up with Simon Funk
- Two months, 20 days since my departure from Boston and arrival in Los Angeles
- Three months since my last day of full-time, on-site work
- Eight months, 17 days since Simon came to live with me
- Eleven months (minus one day) since Simon got hit by a car
- One year (minus two days) since I flew out to Maui to meet him
I'm so very tired right now.

Hi there,
I've been reading your journal, fascinated, amused and sometimes just a little sad for hours now. What energy you have, writing stories, learning to play the fiddle, capoeira. Are you still working as a spreadsheet guru? I've been thinking of changing careers and working as an analyst came up as an option. How did you get into that occupation?
Fish farmer, anaesthesiologist and private detective also came up as options. I could track down fish, take pictures of them committing infidelities, put them to sleep and have them wake up in a sci-fi breeding pen of my choice. I'm not sure how much I would get paid for that though.
The fact that you cook all of Simon's favorite recipes and more besides makes me sad. I used to cook for him too. I'm sorry things didn't work out for you two and I'm especially sorry his e-mails make you feel bad all day. I've been there. Yeah, I'm an ex of Simon's and I'm not going to say anything about our relationship other than that. But... I'm writing you because you seem like someone I would like to know. INTJ, atheist women who like to cook paleo are extremely uncommon. I don't know any besides myself.
