So, I have a floppity jillion things to catch you up on - I went to a reenactment. I went to Sheboygan and ate a dark chocolate pie with crushed pretzel crust.
I went to Chicago; eating and shopping my way through the city.
But here's the strangest thing I did since I wrote last:
There's an exhibit going on at Cheekwood (the local botanical gardens/museum). It's called "More Love", and as one installment, they brought in a composite artist - he works for the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation and usually draws criminals. Based on a two hour conversation, he will draw your first love.
My friend Brian, who works at Cheekwood was trying to find some people to sit for this process, and I volunteered.
I told the man about the boyfriend I had as a High School Frosh. He broke my heart.
In fact the ironic part - I saw the receptionist at the museum when I walked in to ask where to go and she said, "Oh you're here for the Crime Scene?"
After a fashion, yes.
And after two hours of poring over books filled with eyes, ears, hair and so on, he came up with this:
The eyes are off a little, but the rest of it is spot on.
It was only slightly traumatic.
But the heart is a resilient muscle and after losing this fine fellow, I went on to have three more major loves.
I married the last one, and he continues to make me very happy.
