When are you moving here?

 Alex:  not today

 me:  what?

but I have the guest bed all ready

and flowers on the table!

the flowers!

 Alex:  !

 me:  sadness

 Alex:  tragedy

 me:  heartbreak loss and inexpressible longing

etc.

Walking last night...

among the realization of the dreams of others, I felt an acute sense of anxiety and disappointment. I should have started years and years ago! Never doubt your instincts. 

May your fears

... never be realized.

The luxuries

... we don't have.
