26 June I took Ruben out to the country house today and we discussed the possibilities. He said that as soon as the entrepreneur has fixed the place up Severin would like to hold his next Exchange party there. - What is that? I asked - Exchange parties are for poly-competent people. You can only [...]
23 June I slept late, ate a leisurely breakfast and did a bit of this and that, and while I was in the bath it was clear to me that I’m looking forward to tonight. Midsummer’s Eve is one of my favourite evenings, full of bonfires and celebrations. At four p.m. someone rang the doorbell [...]
Sunday 13. June Got an email from Ruben today. He thanked me for the invitation and he accepts. And Oscar suddenly showed up today. He was supposed to go to Rebekka’s wedding at that manor house, but it was cancelled, so I took him and Mille out to the country estate. He’s an attractive, dark-haired [...]
Saturday 12th June Today was my date with the army general. He took me out to lunch at Peter Liep in the park Dyrehaven. We got a table by the window and ate a big lunch with the works, complete with beer and schnapps. – So, your model is interesting, he said, looking at me [...]
Saturday 12th of June I was at Uncle Theo’s funeral yesterday, competition crying with Aunt Tut. The church was filled, there were flowers in all of the colours of the rainbow spread around the coffin and on the floor of the church. The priest, who had known Theo, delivered a stunning eulogy that made me [...]
Tuesday June 8th My beloved Uncle Theo passed on early this morning. I’m so glad I got to see him the other day. And that he didn’t have to suffer long. I’ll never stop missing him and our conversations about the big things in life. Theo was always present, and he could remember what we [...]
June 6th I was at Uncle Theo and Aunt Tut’s today. But only Tut was in their beautiful country house just 10 miles from Copenhagen’s City Hall Square. On the way I picked up Mille from Steen and Marianne’s, then the two of us picked up Anton at the train station and drove up to [...]
Saturday June 5th Spent four hours at the swimming pool with Mille today! Feels like I’ve still got chlorine in my nose. She was brimming with pride because she improved her swimming time by 17 seconds. And Marianne was even prouder than she was. And neither of them let me feel left out – on [...]
Tuesday Ruben wrote this morning! One line: Dear E. Respect yourself. Love R What in the world is that supposed to mean? I want an answer, an invitation, a clear signal about whether he wants me. And all I get is one-line schoolteacher rhetoric! What is he doing? Why can’t we just see each other? [...]
Monday Uncle Theo beamed when he caught sight of me. And even that took effort – he doesn’t have much time left. Aunt Tut went out and left us alone for an hour and it was lovely to spend some time alone with him. My uncle and I have always been close, and it hurt [...]
