Ten.One Thousand, Eight Hundred & Thirty-Four

1. Cold but not that cold. He is colder than me.

2. Slices of grapefruit on a white plate. I feel my heart rate increase a bit as I drizzle the evoo over it. I sprinkle the Maldon salt. This is the closest I’ve come to cooking in quite some time.

3. I should get that paperwork in.

4. I eat while I cook the hash browns and sausage.

5. I sit in between them and am quite certain that I smell like sausage.

6. Coffee. Should not be having anymore.

7. Done for now.

8. Ah! Another article for the magazine. A sign from the universe.

9. These hours just slip away.

10. He asks me what my goals are. I say two of them and even as I say them they sound so boring and practical and not honest. Earlier today I said I wanted to find The Dreamer in me.
