Walk & Write
I just got back from a walk with Tiger. There were some boys who asked what kind of dog he is. I know, he looks crazy. But he's great. It's amazing how happy he's made me in a little over a month. There's nothing quite like unconditional love. He's always happy to see me when I get home from work. THAT's nice.
So I can't seem to get the email my ex wrote out of my head. So here's what he wrote.
....so I told the guy, "I don't even know your dog."
Thank you for forwarding the message from the kids in Texas. I passed it on
to some people I've met with buddies in some interesting countries. If you
ever get word of how the class project ends up, let me know.
Bangkok is very curious. And working for a Chinese entrepreneur is about the
most ass-backwards thing in the world. But it's been very fun, and on the
whole, entirely rewarding.
I hope things are going well at IBM. And if you or your parents feel like
taking an adventure to Pacific Asia before May, I am a first-rate Bangkok
tour guide.

I'm sure I'm making a bigger deal out of it than I should. The email he refers to in the note is one from a teacher in Houston. Her class was requesting people to send their location back so they can track it on a map and learn so geography in the meantime. I thought John would be a good person to send it to since he's so far away. I just didn't think he'd end up writing me in return. Like I said, he ignored the last email I sent.
So I wrote him back. All I said was that I was glad to hear he's doing well and I attached a picture of me and Tiger. Basically I don't have anything to say without saying a whole hell of a lot. I figured being brief was the best thing to do in this situation. I don't think I want to go back to wanting him. Want is so fruitless.
