For two years I have been working on an essay about Wendy. (For two years I have been trying to write anything at all on this website, but I have been too afraid.) I was going to publish it on this website a year ago and everything. It is going to be about every single thing I can remember about her--funny stories and weird moments. (I am still trying to decide whether or not recounting every experience you had with a person in written form is a sign of obsessive-compulsive disorder or not.) I have worked on it here in New York and took it with me to Spain, and then back to New York. It is going to be a great essay. But I can't seem to finish it. Because finishing it means she's really gone.
