Wednesday.
December 15, 2004.
Approximately 12:30 p.m.

Sitting in my car with the sun on my shoulders. The Cure's "Pictures of You" was on the radio. I was eating chicken nuggets with bbq sauce.

About a half hour prior to this, I had gone to the bank and deposited my paycheck and two bonus checks. In two days I'd get my part-time job paycheck, as well. And this morning I had had a great performance review at work.

I was still married, my hair was auburn, I knew there was a See's Candy kiosk in the nearest mall.

I thought to myself, "Right at this moment, life is perfect."

that was then - this is now
