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.

Good morning HFG,

Fucking your boyfriend's brains out is productive.  It is good for both of us.

I am off to my sister's today.  There will be a 100% increase in tension.  Things are already crazy and we haven't even left yet.  Oh well, it looks like a nice day for a train ride.

Have a great day.  I love you.

Good morning my love:

I was writing you this morning when I was rudely interrupted then had to rush off to a soccer game. Oh, the joy of it all. Still, we shouldn't complain. Nadi’s team won 3-0 and she scored a goal which was a source of pride and joy! I hope the tensions are kept at bay, just simmering and not boiling over. In my family boiling over, would mean two people get into a shouting match and one person leaves town to not speak to the other person for months. It happens more often than one would think with all these people living such long ways away and getting together just a few times a year, if that.

Any hoo, I want to hear all about the visit on Tuesday, or earlier if you want to write about it. I can't wait to see you!!

XOXOXO

HFG

GOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL!  A person scores so few in a lifetime.  I hope she celebrated.  A recent study shows that people who celebrate, score more often.  Soccer isn't a time for modesty or humility.

It is low level tension.  No one says anything, but lots of eyes rolling, etc.  We had a nice day relatively.  We had steak for dinner, how bad could it be?

My mom is with them for a few days.  She comes back Wednesday and then leaves on Thursday.  It will be so nice to see you.  I miss you.

I love you HFG.
