All my ex’s
I ran into my ex-bro-in-law on the bayou this afternoon – the Bean and I got in the car with him and took him to the LaLa to show him what is going on. I haven’t seen him since pre-K when I first learned he was diagnosed with cancer, so it was good to catch up. We went back and forth on who’s nuts and who isn’t these days. He bought a house a few weeks before Katrina hit and only had one inch of water, so he and his family are doing well in the midst of the craziness. It was good to see him, his brother, my first husband, still wont speak to me even though it has been about 18 years. He has two kids now.
I can still remember thinking that I had a narrow window back then – stay and have children and leave right then – and try as I might – therapy, etc. – I couldn’t stay. Had I, maybe I’d have those kids I want now, but whatyagonnado?
