Log for: Who Sends a Man Flowers?

The case is getting more and more complex. Every lead just brings on more questions. What is this? An episode of LOST? Finding that body would normally be a dead end, but instead, it opened up a whole new avenue. I'm just not sure how to pursue it. I'm not sure if I'm up to pursuing it. I really need to get Demsky in on this more whole-heartedly. This is beginning to take its toll on me...

I can't believe he shot me. I can't believe I didn't expect him to be there. What is wrong with me? At least it was residual scatter. Nothing went in too deep. A couple days off my feet and I'll be fine. It's still sore as hell, though.

That could have gone much better. I'm wondering how long it will be before Jude asks if I've got an inoperable brain tumor. He must think I'm losing my bloody mind. But what else am I to do? I hate to admit it, but I think there's more to this case than what first appears. I don't think these were suicides. I really, really don't. I'm going to hold Jude to his word. He's going to work this case with me for the next week as though it were a serial homicide. If we find something, we'll work until we solve it. If we don't, we'll tell Marx to take his case elsewhere.

I hope we find something. I'm sure Jude's figured this out about me already, but I don't want to believe that three mothers dedicated to their families would just up and kill themselves. Family should be stronger than that. Their faith aside, their love for their husbands and children should have been stronger. I don't think they were depressed. I don't think they killed themselves. I'm going to find out who did.

I don't want to believe that it could come to that. There has to be some hope. I am not sad and lonely. My partner needs to stop projecting his feelings of loss on to me.

It was nice to meet a fellow Brit. I still count myself as British, despite my partial Cajun upbringing. I only wish this Marx bloke didn't come off as such a bloody loon. What's worse is that I find myself agreeing with him. How am I going to tell Jude that I'm buying into this murder via telephone theory? He's really going to think I've lost it then.
