Elizabeth is still keeping her site running, and turns up on LiveJournal occasionally,
but the URL below is a 404, as warned. In re the events which were happening when this entry was posted,
I note that her bio page says: "I was married before. It ended badly. No, I don't want to talk about it. One shouldn't speak poorly of the dead."
Good advice that.

the gypsy, waning

Well, I found out why Gypsy's links were all broken this morning (as noted in the previous postcard).

Quick, read it while it's still there.

In a dark day filled with other people's stupidity and politics I didn't want to get involved in, a day when I nearly lost my temper and let my boy-brain win, this was not the way I needed to polish off my afternoon.

Oh, I understand, really I do. I'd try to fix my marriage first too. On the other hand, I wouldn't have done ... oh, never mind. It's none of my business.

I'm sad for her. And I'm resentful of her leaving. Both. At the same time.

Damn it, Elizabeth, you'd better write me once in a while. I had only just managed to get an idea of what you were. You wear too much armor.

I'd go have a drink but - oddity of oddities - I usually only drink when I'm in a good mood. I'm going to go get a cup of coffee and button my coat and walk around in the wind.
