Matt and I: A Decade of Friendship


This summer, Matt and I are celebrating our ten year anniversary of beautiful friendship.

Next steps? He knows what he has to do. Results, Matt.

(Connie and Riva also partied with us, although after ten years, all of us realized that now that we're old, partying is more like sitting around, saying nothing, yawning, and thinking that it's getting a little late to be out on a Sunday night.)

Key words: complex and contradictory

actualizing

I have now obtained a Master of Fine Arts degree in Creative Writing.

David and Tracy gave beautiful speeches.

My friends and family walked outside after graduation and the air had turned chilly. Abbey said, "It's a cold world out here post-MFA." This may be true, but I'm feeling warm.






















Thank you, Michael. Visibility is an addictive and powerful thing.

one of the best days

I taught my seminar today and gave my reading tonight. Everything fell into place.
Thanks Mom, Dad, Kimberley, Riva, Abbey, Michael, Brian, Hester, and Rachel.
