The First Dinner
After ending an outside meeting at 7.30pm, I headed instinctively towards his room and sat forlornly (not so quietly - but with a dramatic sigh) behind him. The Crush rose gallantly to the occasion and attempted to cheer me up, encourage me and so on.
Let’s have dinner, I declared impetuously after a while. I feel lousy.
But I made sure we had a chaperone, another friendly face to make things friendly.
So dinner with two young men saved the first half of the night.

Part Two was supper with SS that saw us talking past 5am this morning.

I’m not alone in my occasional delusion, misguided idealism, sad cynicism and disillusionment.

Well. Today is but another day. Like The Crush said, take it as impeding ORD.
I honestly find The Crush so cool. I forgive him for not having the usual height, and the absent veins and dimples.
