Time Travelled — 12 months

For the end of 2006...

Dear FutureMe, How's the writing coming? I hope you managed to get yourself in a routine where you were spending a few hours a day banging on a keyboard, and that you stuck to this routine for at least a few months. Because that's the only way you'll ever know if you have a good book in you. And it would be a shame if you never find out. I also hope the investments I made for you did reas...

Greetings from the Past!

Dear FutureMe, I am sitting at work, because I don't have to label envelopes at the moment. I have not paid my rent yet, for some reason, and I may be evicted because of it. I don't know. I don't have the money. I am also going on a kind of date tonight with Sarah Martin, even though I am currently sleeping with Holly, a girl who routinely dumps me. Christmas is in 5 days. So! What are you ...

Winter Solstice Eve

Dear FutureMe, Do you remember today? Have you forgotten yourself already? You were miserable at your job -- your editor snapped at you and you still haven't had a chance to write a decent sentence since November -- yet you decided to turn down another job offer. It was the tedium that persuaded you. No need to trade one tedium for another. Once you made the decision, there was that ...

It's Christmas... time to reflect

Dear FutureMe, I'm 38 and this Christmas I remember all those other Christmases that have come before. As I listen to the Christmas music I remember the thoughts I had listening to them in years past. I remember how lonely I was. I remember watching the love between couples, and I remember telling God, Santa, and whoever else would listen, how I only wanted my companion, my soulmate, m...

She said trying to fig...
