Just a Quick Note

...to say that we had a great time but I'm utterly exhausted and spending the night with my books.

I seem destined to periodically drop off Australians at ferry terminals and drive away feeling desolate.

Although, this time was about 1 millionth of a percentage point as hard and there was only a little tear that never made it past my lid. Which suprised me a little - a week with one of Matt's best friends, after never being able to talk to anyone that actually 'knows' him - was harder at the end than I thought it'd be...

...it was also hard to watch the 'last' one head off to get on a plane to leave Canada...

...and since I can now admit it's entirely possible that I'll never see Matt again, this felt a little - in a very strange way - that dropping Yeti off was letting Matt go once more - just in a different way that's so very hard to explain.

I didn't want to let go and I've never wanted to just walk away and get on a plane with someone so much in all my life.

But, I didn't. So, I'll see you again soon.
