Tomorrow marks the beginning of the Year of the Monkey in the Chinese astrological calendar. On the 20th of January it will be a year since I began corresponding with someone to whom this is of particular interest, with whom I’ve travelled for days, spoken until my phone battery died, had week-long e-mail conversations and hours-long face-to-face discussions, and with whom I’ve had little meaningful contact for several months despite my best efforts to the contrary.
Discretion being the better part of weblogging, I think I’ve said enough for now.
