15 January 1983 - as Altair Thicknesse
Christmas well, was Christmas. We didn't see Arcite enough and we still had to deal with the Lynches and there was the fact that Florence's husband isn't dead. It was an interesting mix. Brad was there with his new wife, I didn't talk to her very much or Brad but they looked happy enough to be together. It was good to see my family and we got to visit with Yetta's family.
I'm not sure how her brother's feel about me yet, but I was as polite as I could be.
I wish Florence all the best with Magnus. I'm not completely certain what is going on now. I know it's been hard for her, she's come to visit a few times and brought her friend. I trust that Florence will get her way in the end, but that doesn't mean that it will be easy. I can't help but be nervous for her, after everything she's been through. She deserves to be happy.
I heard rumours about Lotho and his girlfriend. Of course, I knew about the love potioning. Everyone around here did, I saw him briefly at a party, I didn't get to talk to him very much. But Yetta is very interested in how is doing, they spent time growing up together and I am always interested in what Arvie and Lotho are doing. I'll have to ask Yetta how she feels about having them visit. But I suppose Lotho has reached that age where you feel like its time to grow up. I'm not sure if he has thought about it like that or not, but that's just my personal theory.
Either that or he really does fancy her. He seemed to enjoy her company the brief moment that I saw him with her, he seemed to be attracted to her, but I think it would be harder to pretend you weren't attracted to someone who looked like that. That's just a personal opinion. Of course, I find very few women completely unattractive, I'm not one to talk
I also saw Suk but did not see his wife. Everyone has said that they haven't met his wife. I know that they're married, but I also know Suk. I'm afraid that if people haven't met his wife that means that he doesn't want people to meet her that means that he doesn't want people to remember he's married. It's a guess, I don't spend that much time with him any more because I live in Belgium and he does not. I could be wrong, I didn't get a chance to ask Arvie and Alton what they though. We'll see what happens with Suk.
It might blow up in his face.
It might not. He might just keep her locked in a closet.
That would be funny.
For me not for the woman.
Although, I heard he was still sleeping with Briseis Spavin anyway, gods his life is a bleeding mess. This is probably not going to work out for the best. It could, but I don't know what game Suk is playing and he might not know either.
Perhaps he and his sister made the whole thing up and they'll come out and say surprise later.
I don't know. I should visit again soon, I know that there is a lot that I'm missing here, but I like it here in Belgium. I think that Yetta is getting used to it and even Fearchar, but that might just be being hopeful. We've gone to see Quiberon as many times as we can. I don't need to be Fearchar's father, I just need him to like me.
We've started trying for a child. We'll see how it turns out. I'm nervous about being a parent
It was good to see everyone at Christmas. I'm not sure when Yetta, Fearchar, and I will be visiting again, but I'm certain it will be sooner rather than later.
