On being asked to elaborate on the nature of love: “Love is when you’re hugging but you want to go to sleep.” “Love is when the covers aren’t enough for both of you but… it’s really annoying and you want them back!!” Or earlier in the evening, discussing the possibility of the internet via snail [...]

James must think I’m a robot or something, because he’s started addressing me as “Unit”. It started out as Elaine-unit but was soon shortened. I really preferred Elainosaur.
Yeah, the one that James was going to throw at a cat. After we decided to resume eating, we took a walk and he brought the kiwi, peel and all, and started eating it like an apple. He took a few bites and then held it out to me. “Would you like some delicious kiwi?” [...]
James and I are starting our fast tomorrow. He’s got a kiwi in his fridge. I asked if he was gonna eat it, since he can’t for 10 days after. “No.” “What are you gonna do with it?” “I’ll wait till it gets really fat and then I’ll… throw it at a cat.” “haha what?” [...]

James and I dropped Corey off and then went to drive me home. “oooooh” I said because my tummy was cramping. “Aww you’re like a frog without moistening,” he said and patted my knee. “What!?” “or like a bubble kitten.” “What the hell’s a bubble kitten!?” “I don’t know, it’s like two cute things put [...]
As far as the church year goes, this is my favourite night. I love going to Easter eve vigil. It’s beautiful and mysterious, and dark and light at the same time. I love the chants and the candlelight and I love the vision of the dry bones passage from Ezekiel. I love the concept of [...]
Conversations such as this one are completely normal. [Listening to the CBC in the car] James: Did that guy just say “square spice”? Elaine: She was supposed to be the sixth Spice Girl, but she got cut. James: Yeah, they cut her good. Elaine: I hear her left leg was never found. James: They should [...]
I don’t post terribly much about James I guess, I rarely get mushy. He is great though. I love that when he emails me it ends with “love, your best buddy James.” It’s the best feeling ever.
