Thanks Marcia. I guess I wrote this at the time as something I thought only I would read, so I was able to put all my pain and angst out there and not worry too much about cohesion or style. I probably should have been more concerned with those things, or at least that’s what my present self thinks. I’m sure it can probably use an editor’s pen, but in this case I wanted to keep it raw to reflect more accurately what my younger self put down.
