Midnight Meltdown

Last night, I was rooting around my files for documentation in support of my passport application. I found my birth certificate, marriage license, and Suzy's death certificate. I couldn't find my original Social Security card, but I found a lot of cards between Suzy and me. Valentine's cards, birthday cards, anniversary cards. I read them all and bawled my eyes out. So much love, so much hope, such anticipation for the future. All gone.

First time for that in many, many months.
