Cold turkey

What do Americans call the aftermath of Turkey Day? Cold turkey? I bet not. It would be unjust of me, too, to call it that, or rather, it wouldn't do justice to the man and our relationship. J was here, we had fun, we had some disagreement that was resolved and he left yesterday. I was left with some emptiness in my heart. I am a bit melancholic, which is not an unusual feeling after he leaves but this time I feel also blue because I feel the loss of some feelings between the two of us. He was the love of my life.

Anyway, I have to quit musing, I have a young French suitor to write to. He thinks I might have gotten killed in the university shooting of Pecs. How global we turned, in more than one ways.

Thanksgiving

My old BF is coming over for a long weekend to visit. He picked of all the occasions Thanksgiving, this most sacred of American holidays. A lot of people asked me, upon telling them, "is his wife coming with him?". I had to laugh this question off, in all its naivety, but it still got to me. They must have very little common ground by now, that J chose to spend it with me. I was a bit shocked myself. I am looking forward to his visit, but not without some anxiety. I hope all is going to be well.
