One Year Ago, Today

If you're reading this now, it's because I trust you and want to include you in my life. Thank you. I appreciate our friendship.

Vicky and I posted about 50 items on Amazon.com's marketplace. So far, we have sold some of my old Cliffs Notes, Bette Midler and Linda Eder CDs (both to men), and a Babyface CD to a woman in Chicago. I think on the 5 or so things sold, we have made about $4.

It's hard finding the perfect business.

It's really nice when somebody has been thinking of you and calls you to let you know it. I become flushed with pleasure and the somebody gets, according to Jose's scale, 10 points. I miss the days when I would play lilting Spanish slow jams and dream about an Italian beau, or wonder about true love or imagine what shapes and colors fulfilment would take on. Each minute was heavy with promise. The best thing was falling asleep at night simply because my thoughts would take me to a nice place, and springing up every morning expecting to see it. Do you know what I mean? Because I'm not sure I do, anymore.

Porque eres tu, mi sol.
La fe con que vivo,
La potencia de mi voz,
Los pies con que camino.

Eres tu, amor,
Mis ganas de reir,
El dios que no sabre decir
Porque nunca podre sin ti.


- Shakira Mekbara
