I felt very much at peace but "goodbye" still lurked in the back passages of my mind.This last week has been something of a roller coaster. Friday, Ed arrived for his last weekend in the 'Burg. We hit the bar and then escaped for a little time alone together. Saturday, "goodbye" started to hit. Ed and I went to the Governor's Palace to feed the fish and it was so beatiful and peaceful. There was a moment when we sat in silence with the sun shining throught the trees and laying shadows on our bodies. I felt very much at peace but "goodbye" still lurked in the back passages of my mind.
Later that night after Ed cooked me a marvelous dinner we decided to his the Trellis for desert, requesting Jack Kaiser as our waiter. With a little Acte 12 running through my system, let's just just say I was real eager to get back home and tie up a few loose strings. Sunday proved to be sad. I had postponed "goodbye" as long as possible but I finally had to say it. Ed left for the almost unbearable drive to Auburn, Alabama while I turned back to my room and let a few tears escape. My heart is in Alabama being well looked after.
I had postponed "goodbye" as long as possible but I finally had to say it.The last few lonely days have been cold and empty at night. I guess I've been compensating by studying extra-hard. Unfortunately, this can sometimes make me bitter.
Outside of Ed, my life goes on...Beta cracks its whip, Hall Council makes me laugh, and Williamsburg heads back to Swampland. If only laundry could do itself...
