First Halloween on island, and I knew this is where I belonged.  (2019)

Good example of how curated IG can hide painful reality.  (2019)

Ericka's chewing gum hides a missing tooth.  Due to her never-identified immune disease she started having connective tissue problems, and that tooth became loose not long before we moved up here (she refused to go to the appointment I'd set up for her with a dental reconstruction provider).  She knocked it out herself when she had me backed against the kitchen sink in our Belltown apartment and headbutted me in the chest.  

As usual, I don't precisely recall what sin I'd committed to ignite her rage, only the terror.  NGL, it felt like karma (Ericka loved to say, "Karma!" and do the Vivian Kensington head shake).

Anyway, I continue to have difficulty exorcising all the ghosts...
