listen lisa

Tonight is my last night (or as far as I know) in NY for work, although I have a sinking feeling I'll be back here. Not going to lie, it's been bad speckled with awesome.

Listen Lisa -

You were the speckle. We were forced together whether we wanted to or not - destined to travel across the country each week together. You gave me perspective. You made me embrace, "Bitches get things done!"

For the first time in so long I spoke without pre-thinking it. That felt awesome. You reminded me of someone I knew so long ago.

I spilled everything to you because I just couldn't help it, and I thank you for not making me feel embarrassed, or shy, or ashamed. I thank you more for keeping it between me and you without me ever needing to ask you to.

We laughed because there was nothing else to do. You had my back and I had yours.

We've gotten lost, found our way, and became the experts. We car danced.

I worry that we'll fade apart and pray that we won't.

So listen Lisa, thank you for breaking up the awful with awesome. Let's laugh again, donkey.

Shake, shake, shake, shake, a-shake it,
mn
