Above all else

It's been months, actually. More than a year. I left her on New Year's Day, 2010. She got a boyfriend two weeks after I left. She filed the papers almost exactly a year ago.

Then, at Christmas, she talks about fixing everything. We've got two kids, so I sort of open up. She came out here a couple weeks ago. She interviewed for a job. We got too close. Too, too close.

Today, she writes. Turning the job down. Staying in Omaha. Above all else, I feel stupid for letting her get to me.

Above all else, I feel like I had one chance, and it's gone.
