Phone rings this morning.
Hello?
"Hey" It's Dawn.
"Abby's sick so I called in sick. If she still feels bad, I won't bring her tonight."
OK, I hope she feels better.
" Whats wrong James?"
I'm a little bummed out is all.
"Why are you bummed out?"
I said, I don't know why, I just am.
What I want to say was
"Are you kidding? Why am I bummed out? It's certainly not because my wife left me. It's not because my life is completely upside down. It's not because I can't go to bed at night without thinking about you."
I'm trying to move on. It does get easier every day and perhaps I am being a bit mellow dramatic, but hell that was a dumb question.

Honesty without meanness... I recommend it.
