It begins ... with a slice of comedy.

Agent99,

I seem to have spent most of last night and this evening looking for a tour that will satisfy me. I may have found one (at last - hurray!). In the UK there are lots of companies that specialise in tours, but the timing means most are booked up for last minute travelling. A lot claim to be good for solo travellers. I guess I'm going to find out (assuming this one is still available tomorrow)!

I hope it works out!!

On a completely different note, I was struck by a song I was listening to today, it reminded me of a time when my W and I were in the car, singing away on the way to her fathers house (to the same song). I can't believe that that won't happen again, all that is gone. It seems so wrong.

I still can't make sense of all this. Perhaps that's the point. There is no sense.

When I was getting the bed ready last night and I was putting his pillows on his side of the bed, I burst into tears thinking about how that was going to be coming to end soon and I might never be touching his pillows again. So, I TOTALLY know what you are talking about.

I saw on mkultra's thread that your friends haven't asked how you are; just offering silly platitudes. It might be because you are a guy. I mean, people expect a woman to spill the beans on how she is feeling emotionally--maybe they expect you to keep it in-but not because of *you*, just because of your sex. Or maybe they can sense that you could be in a fragile state and don't want to make you feel "bad" be bringing up the serious feelings.

You seem quite approachable here on the boards!

Let us know how the trip goes!
