Hey James,
This year felt so much longer than the others, even though I was sleeping so much. Every time I dreamed I was with you but I knew it was just a dream, it wasn't you. I relived our old adventures, you know... We never did go back home, like you said. And without you... I don't think I ever will, just like you said. Damn you. But we had some good times, didn't we? Remember when we toured the New World? Remember when those red-skins thought you were some kinda devil or something? You you remember when... Henry was born?
You damn handsome fool... How dare you leave me, a Marker, alone like this...
--You better be in the same place I'm going, assuming that God's there. You'd be in heaven, I guess... I'll need to be a little better won't I, James? Damn you. If ever year is as lonely as this one's been, I'll wring your neck when I catch up with you. You always did tease me too much, but then you were soft to humans of all things. ...I'm getting soft too, you know that? I'm tolerating them here. Are you proud? Are you laughing?
I miss you, you handsome bastard. You better be watching me, seeing as how you gave up when you did. I love this family, and I swore I'd never let another one of them die, and then you died one me. ...Well I'll make sure all of them live. Even Karin with all her problems. So you better not get with another gal. I'll skin her alive. ...Well dead. Whatever.
Happy New Year, James.
Love,
Elda Marker
