Between the chapters; more



Terry is one of those science genius types and from the moment I met him I felt like I knew him —already….before? He had waved to me from the distance at first but —I maintained it instead and —I can be quite aloof; but one day he reversed as I was walking up the drive 


Mary was the same, actually, she ambushed me from the road and well, you know I tried to blend with the trees but, there were none around just then and she said,

“I’m impressed how diligently you walk every day….” 


well, there was a moment in my mind of suddenly being trapped in a Jane Austin novel ….two professional who bought the farm

and right at the end of the drive. In fact, they are like the actual gatekeepers as you cannot reach the grounds unless you pass their land and drive upon their drive/road; weirdly but it seems, that they seem to have a desire to adopt me !! which is overwhelmingly sweet. In fact, as I guess —his career in healthcare caused him to remark on my behalf to well —we won’t say ….so—no, perhaps a Dickens novel? Brontë? Anyone? more like Du Maurier, perhaps….so dare I say, breaking out in hives, they have a son who’s about 36 they want me to meet but what is fascinating more is that not only do they know Bard college and are (foolishly) impressed with me —hmm, well, there it is; but that I suspect they have a romantic concept of me seen from the lens of their professional worlds


She is a published author too. I have actually felt as if they may be my fairy god parents appointed by my heavenly angels

 ….she says,


“Oh you must do it!” 


as I blather about a lost dream to create this into …. what ….? a “work” on film


She studied with Lee Strasberg. She has connections with film production crew. Our interest and connections are rather uncanny —and again I have to wonder   

so he is the nerd and clever scientist and ….I suspect if they knew who my real father was they’d …. begin a campaign
