Dream
I hate it when people write about their dreams, but here's one I had that seemed particularly... I don't know... pertinent, for some reason.
I am standing on a bustling Manhattan street corner on a cold night, waiting for a girl who is supposed to meet me for a date. She is not a girl I know, but a girl created by my imagination for the purpose of this dream. I can see her face in my mind, though -- in the dream-world we must have met before -- and she's cute enough. I wait and wait, and she doesn't show up.
Suddenly, someone runs out of the crowd and embraces me. It's my longtime (real) friend Amy Carpenter, who lives in Phoenix now, I think. We talk about old times and laugh. She has somewhere to go, and of course I have this date, so we part ways and promise to keep in touch.
I keep waiting but the date-girl never shows up.

The dream makes it sound like maybe you've got beautiful things in your life now, yet you're spending your time waiting for something else. Do you feel that applies at all?
By the way - long time no "see!" How are you, Tony? What's been going on in your life? Still in NY?
