I have had some really good chats with Ruth in the past few weeks. She's a lovely postgrad at Trinity and I feel a bit of home when I am with her. I feel emotionally safe with her in a way that I feel with Wolfgang or Suzi. It's different, but there is something there, even some similarities in vocabulary. But it's been really nice. And it's often unexpected which works out even better when I am trying to write because I have a tendency to push myself to grind out the paper even though I know it is a creative process; when I have the unexpected but intensely honest moments with Ruth, I walk away lighter and ready to work.
And then I will be going to Italy with Gabry so I might not be posting for a little while, as usual when I travel. But trust that I will return refreshed and full of stories to share.
