It was a drag.  I was in the middle of southbound when the pager went off.  No way to know what caused the problem.  ConEd was working in the street, but the outage was limited to part of our facility.

How was your evening?

Hi SNB:

I hope today is better than yesterday job wise : ) although it feels hot and humid; hopefully at least the AC will cooperate. 

My evening was fine. I saw Savages. It was extremely violent and gory. If this movie isn't an ad for legalizing pot, I don't know what is. It was pretty good otherwise. The ending made sitting through all that gore rewarding.

My friend Lauren finally gave me her feedback on the script. She liked it as a first draft, but basically there is a structural problem that I have no idea how to fix and keep the story as is. So, it's kind of back to the drawing board. I have some time for the next month to fiddle with it, then I have to decide whether to give it up, return to The Newsletter and involvement in my children's school life and life in general, or take script writing courses somewhere. It's a hard choice, and I have no idea which I will do, but I know I can't do both. Why does life always have to be such a fucking drag?!

Love you,

Me.

Hey HFG,

AC is not cooperating.  Woo Hoo!

Why is it an ad for legalizing pot?  I kind of like things the way they are.   I am not sure I want it legal. 

Structural problems?  I am not really sure what that means.  No point in keeping the story the same if it won't survive the problems though.  I hope you can work that out. 

Life is good.  I will prove it to you when I see you.  I love you HFG.

I guess I can use some proof of life being good. What's got you so up? The pot question is a complicated one, but basically if it were legal there wouldn't be so much violence and killing over money associated with it. If you're interested talking writing issues, I can fill you in at dinner. Today, is my husband's birthday, so he wants to go shopping again to see if he can find the new shoes he needs for work. I'm tagging along. I'll write when I get back.

I can't wait to see you!

XOXOXO

Me.

My life is good.  Not least of all because you are in it.

I love you.  Have fun this afternoon.

Hello HFG,

I would love to hear about the shoes, but I won't be up late tonight.  I am headed for the couch and it could be lethal.  I didn't sleep well last night.

Have a good night.  I love you.

Me

Ps.  I will check again later if I don't crash.

Hi My Love:

It's been a long day. I'm really tired. It's so unfair that we should have to get stoned separately held prisoner by sleeping spouses. Being stoned together would be so much more fun. 

I hope your day was good. Mine was all right. It was also disappointing as always and a bit trying. It's not easy pretending to be happy and getting along--shoes or no shoes, although it's better with shoes I suppose. At least it's a diversion.

I love you,

Me.
