Judgment Divorce 150328.pdf
I don't know whether Chuck is alive or not, or what he's doing, but I loved him immensely and am grateful for the years we were together. I was extremely serious that I meant to be married for life and it didn't work out for a lot of reasons. It was more his choice than mine, but we both played a role. A couple pictures of us happy together. I am also very proud of his career and accomplishments, and very proud and appreciative of the way he helped me, and have many happy memories of our time spent together in coffee shops doing work side by side especially, as well as enjoying things like Strong Bad, Order of the Stick, Firefly, Rescue Me, House, Project Runway, (weirdly) The Apprentice, The Wire, and ... there's one I'm forgetting that was really important that I had a second ago I'll let you know if I think of it. He also taught me a little about databases, helped me install a lot of stuff on my Mac (especially bash), helped me learn how to install stuff myself, and listened endlessly to me talk about physics and gave interesting thoughts himself and generally was supportive. I would have died to make that marriage work and he saved my life to stay together. In the end, he connected me with the love of my life and the career of my dreams whether he meant to or not before leaving, and made sure I was financially and emotionally safe.
My current long term partner, since during the time CCH and I were separated but before we were divorced, beginning in roughly but not exactly December 2014, is Professor Peter Diener, a computational astrophysics professor who is Danish but a USA permanent resident of 20 years. I am learning Danish and German for him, mostly Danish, and badly. I love him very much forever, and while we began dating while working on the same project as coworkers ten years ago, and I proposed to him more than once back then, we have not seen each other since 2018, and our communication is bad (though real). I would still like to marry him if we could make the real life details work, which is obviously an issue given that I'm trans/nonbinary, it's international, and we're both disabled, but maybe we could have a life together or something :) :) :) that seems very reasonable. In the mean time, thanks to him for literally saving my life at least three times, maybe more, as well as ten wonderful years together and also teaching me how to do theoretical computational physics. :) :) :)
This isn't every single photo I have of you, us, or the things we did together and I don't think this is the perfect layout, but hopefully it will at least help establish that you are in fact the person I claim you are wow I cannot believe how dumb some people are. Love you forever Peter sweetie!
Work represented as my work is my work. Other people mentioned supervised, collaborated, helped, assisted, commented, funded, kept company, provided base code, blah blah, ... except for the fortran code mentioned here as the base code for the C++ work, which I am providing as a citation
