we have so many portals to connect. thanks to facebook, i know what my friends’ kids had for breakfast today and the funny thing their dog did yesterday. even with that level of information, i still feel pretty damn disconnected. waiting for a phone call that doesn’t ever come on the cell phone…or the home phone…or the work phone. the email that doesn’t come to yahoo, charter, gmail or work. the text that doesn’t come, the facebook post that never appears, the silence on the blog too. full of woe at the empty mailbox like charlie brown. flowers that come to the office that aren’t for me. a million and one ways to be disconnected, shut out, isolated.
