Hmmm, the universe does not want me to spend time with my co-author. Every time we plan an opportunity to get together, something intervenes: a death, a severe cold, a work responsibility, something. What is it about our collaboration that needs to be delayed?

I don't know, but that's life.

I guess I am supposed to get farther along in my chapter revisions or something---there's some reason I don't understand yet.
