Letters

Dear Taharka,
It would appear I'm starting us off early. Not a real shocker. Perhaps it's good, perhaps this is the habit the doctor (Richard) called for. I've written letters that afterwards, after sense sunk in, were completely forgotten and life continued. Though when I wrote the letter, the topic consumed me. Maybe this is the habit I'll get into every time my daddy issues start creepin'.

I'm bummed I didn't hear from you today. At first I was in uproar because I was being given a bit of evidence that you may be like all the other guys; flaky or not into me. I really like what Khat said though, "I can't see him having any malintent. He's gonna be around. And even if you're not together in the capacity you'd like to be, he'll always be your friend." That's enough. It's not what I want, but it's enough, so long as nothing more is promised. I can maintain a friendship if that's what you want, just don't lead me to believe there's more. Anyway, I'm excited to be friends with you, to keep your presence in my life. Yeah, that's the minimum I require.

Now that the fear that you may be like every other guy has somewhat subsided for the moment, I'm just bummed cause I was really looking forward to our first phone conversation. I know that's silly but, think about it; I mean, I don't know about you, but I get soo much more out of phone conversations than any other form of communication. And the two of us, well we've never had a real one-on-one. I'm excited to get to know you.

So yeah, I want to get to know you. I know this wasn't our only opportunity for a phone conversation and they'll be many to come. I'll get over the fact that it wasn't today, but can it please be soon?

Sincerely,
Tiqi
