Dear Diary
Dear Diary Tuesday November 22nd Woke up at 7.31. Got up, washed, dressed, and crossed the day off the calendar. Came downstairs and ate breakfast. Went for a walk. When I came back there was a package addressed to me on my doorstep. What a surprise! I took it into the house and opened it. Inside were seven envelopes. On each one was written a day of the week. I put them all neatly on the living room table and opened the envelope labelled ‘Tuesday,’ because that was the day I’d crossed off the calendar. That meant it must be today.

Blue and Green
The first time I saw you was at the birthday party of a mutual friend. I couldn’t stop looking at you. I’d never seen a redhead with one blue eye and one green eye, and such white skin. I was captivated. As a visual artist your natural colouring was fascinating to me, so it was only subsequent to that discovery that I noticed how beautiful you were.
