I got another letter from the Nova Scotia Community Service’s Adoption Reunion branch yesterday. After some ‘preliminary inquiries’ they believe they may have located my birth mother. I am now finishing my biographical letter and mailing it off along with a photo of myself (the one I used in the about me section on this blog). They want to have it available prior to approaching her. To say I’m afraid is a slight understatement. Being a creative person the limitless possible outcomes of this are beating the hell out of me. Any information at all will help answer some of the questions that have haunted me for my entire life. Here’s hoping… Wish me luck.

Also on the adoption front, Marty Johnson, adopted person, fellow blogger and reader of this pathetic excuse of a blog, has his story and interview in GQ magazine coming to newsstands on Thursday. Marty is the guy who found he is a Nigerian Prince and traveled to Nigeria to meet his natural family. Now I don’t know if there’s any royalty in my blood nor do I think it worthy of GQ, however, I’m sure my story is interesting in it’s own way. I’m excited to find out what it is. You never know.

UPDATE (2:57pm): Letter sent.
