Made my delivery. Shall be back home tomorrow evening. Have some
fresh salmon for dinner. Hope this week wasn’t to much of a hassle for
you. Hope Jennie is Ok too. I now we keep in touch at all times and you
tell me everything. It seems…some mystery is gone. I remember when I
expected a letter from my father every…now and then. It was crazy!
My stepmother would read it to us and we would simply be mystified
by every word of it. It was magic. I wonder if that magic has somehow
has being lost now due to current technology.
I remember when I was a kid and wrote those letters to a girlfriend
until four in the morning. Going to the post office. Licking a letter stamp
with my lips as in a kiss. And sending it to her. Ah…
And when I saw her ten days later…she would greet me in a most
passionate way. Her kisses were pure honey. Her embrace Jesus’s
mother. And her protruding chest the Himalayas reaching me.
The torture of wanting her caused me extreme fevers…but wait…
Oh, yes. I shall see you tomorrow.
I love you.
