Out of the blue, out of nowhere, I heard from RS today. Actually, 2 days ago, but I only saw the letter this morning. He wrote to tell me that the computer I sent him years ago died, and that he was studying naturopathic medicine and full of ideas for CAMA, something we were supposed to be working on together, ideas which I’d thought he’d abandoned for good.
For months I was convinced he had excised me from his life. Now I’m not sure what to think. I’ve responded to the email, but in an atypical way. It’s not like me to use so few words with him. To tell you the truth, I was finally nearing peace with his absence. Now I’m on the verge of spinning over his sudden return. But the prospect of finally taking up this idea we had is so alluring. Especially since nothing else is happening, and everything is just hanging in a stony paralysis. I’ve become steadily more ill, while waiting for medicine to arrive, medicine that was supposedly sent in the mail over 2 months ago. And re-sent last month (never to arrive!). And then re-sent again, by courier, earlier this week. But it has to travel less than a hundred miles to get to me, and it has not arrived at this Toronto address yet….by courier. Maybe it will arrive today.
