Letter to Julia 20111203

Hi Julia my love, how are you feeling? I'm just sitting here, writing a love letter, and watching TV. It's been a busy week for some reason, but unproductive. I did a lot of unnecessary running around. For instance, I went to the government clinic to pick up some antifungal cream for my left toe, but it was a long wait because the place was packed, as it usually is. Normally I am prepared to wait, but that day my stomach had some urgent business to attend to, and it started to protest, so I took my stomach home to the comfort of the toilet it so loves, as opposed to a public restroom in a public hospital. That's another reason why I don't like to travel anymore: I don't like to be far away from my bathroom! Wouldn't you prefer to use only your own restroom that you are familiar with? Especially considering the lack of privacy we have to put up with? It's not as simple as taking a roll of toilet paper along with us wherever we go.

Well, I guess I'm stubborn, huh? God gave me this baby, and I have been raising it alone for many, many years already. And I want you. I don't have faith in the morning, then turn back in the evening, like some others. Now please excuse me, I'm going to go and hide in my cave.
