Almost four years ago, I fell in love for the first time--twenty-five years too late--and began an affair. Over the years, Kevin and I have met several times a week and email several times a day. I have kept almost all of the emails that I sent to him and that he sent to me. Along the way, there has been laughter and tenderness and heat...and heartache.

This blog is the posting of our daily emails. It chronicles the lives of two people over a four year period so far, and tells the story of our burgeoning love against the backdrop of New York City.

The names and addresses have been changed to protect the innocent; the rest is 100% real.

The daily update structure helps keep the blog as authentic as possible as well as living up to its title. It also strives to provide the reader with the kind of pleasure that a soap opera offers--a daily dose of voyeuristic fun.

Please begin at the beginning, otherwise, little will make sense.

Enjoy.

It is going to be a good day. I am really looking forward to seeing you later. You have me very excited. I haven’t felt this way in a long time.

I don’t sleep well in the heat. I was up for a while and then woke up early.  I hope you slept well.

It was fun chatting last night. I loved your story about your first time. “We then resumed.” Great delivery.

See you soon.

Me.

I love hearing from you first thing in the morning : ) I’m sorry you didn’t sleep well. Don’t you have air conditions? Or do you yet have to put the unit in the window?

I look forward to today too. Where are we going Sofia or Oasis?

I love thinking about you first thing in the morning. You were also my last thought before I went to bed.

The AC was on. I think the heat during the day messes up my body clock. I have very high body temp.

Let’s meet at Sofia. I can’t really be sure about the couches at either place. Oasis is probably more crowded.

I will be at Sofia at 4. Let me know which train you get on. Do you still have my cell #?

It is getting closer!

I’ll take the 3 o’clock bus, and then walk the few blocks. I do have your cell #, so if anything unexpected happens, I’ll call. At this hour, usually the bus takes about 40 minutes to the UES, a little longer to Midtown. I like thinking of you first thing in the morning too. You just pop into my head, I can’t help it.

See you soon.

Great news. See you soon. I am very distracted. Today has pretty much been a waste of a work day.

We drank Chianti, one of his favorites, feasted on a platter of cheeses and salumi, and kissed. We neither noticed who saw us, nor cared.
