Anyway, your daughter is the sweetest thing; I just looked on her Facebook page where she banters with her friends and an entire conversation is punctuated with about twenty little heart symbols. There is absolutely no "effort," Emma, in loving someone who loves her.

Actually, Suboxone is an unusual opiate insomuch as that taking more does not necessarily have a more pleasurable or relieving effect; it's very complicated, whereas opiates usually are not complicated at all. Basically, if you Google it you'll see a number of message boards by which the international junkie community compares notes on their experiences, and the consensus is that it is not only more responsible but also more reasonable even in terms of junkie values to take a small amount because otherwise it is overpowering in a way that none of us really likes. Anyway, no need to worry as even getting off Suboxone entirely is nothing compared to what we are used to; there's really nothing that can bother you much after you've been through the whole opiate cycle, withdrawal, struggle-to-escape-impending-death.

Okay, 8 to 2 is quite a jump. Does anything help? You mentioned meditation the other day. Do you use meditation to combat the craving?

As for the  Suboxone, I am sort of playing it by ear. I've reduced my dose from 8 milligrams to 2 each day and will probably stop taking it daily at some point but rather just have it on hand for when I feel tempted to go back to the needle.

Wow, you haven't run out on me after all. I was about to barricade myself in the bathroom thinking that was the last I'd ever hear from you. I'm pleased beyond measure that you decided to stick around because, although I have what might be termed *baggage*, I am worth the effort. I'm not blowing my own trumpet, just stating facts. 

You're so hot and fully masculine (if that makes sense, but it does to me) that I am in real danger of becoming your total slave. Im still really fucking totally freaked out. I am so freaked out I have to keep pinching myself. I love the way you write btw. It's quality is so smooth and flowing. It's a pleasure to read someone so talented. I'm glad your stomach feels better. You must tell me what happens next regarding the suboxone. Are you on maintenance or is this a step in withdrawing? I'm interested, not in a prurient way, in a caring and loving way. Btw I do love you, Barrett. I can feel it right now as I write this.

Very well. Today's big task is to finish collecting all of the info I have on my soon-to-be-ex-publisher so that the lawyer I'm using can quickly get him a letter explaining that he is in breach of the informal contact and I have withdrawn my manuscript. Then I have to get a two-page proposal to the agent that Barry Eisler hooked me up with last week and who already read the first chapter. Everything else is typically put-offable, like most everything I do. Luckily my stomach is back to normal as of last night (people who haven't gone through the opiate rollercoaster have no idea how triumphant it is to feel completely normal) and I've been able to take my Suboxone again and drink coffee, so I'm ready to get this finished up.

I just refreshed my blog page and your picture was next to mine on the *Like* button. Thats what I call a sign.

Also while we're on this train, I must tell you that as well as training in human right law, I can throw pots on a wheel, blow glass into nice shapes and I'm a pretty good artist but nobody else thinks so. Don't know why I'm telling you this. I think I just want to talk to you or feel close somehow.
