Went to Greenlife today. Didn't see my sandwich maker. Wondered what I would say if I did see him. Maybe,"Hey, thanks for the pork."
Nope.
Maybe, "Didn't expect you to pack the bacon on that one."
Nope.
Maybe, "Hey, thanks for the bacon on that sandwich. I didn't think you were serious."
Possibly.
Maybe I'll just write a thank you note.

Psycho Love
The New York Times has a column called Modern Love that features essays about relationships, love, and lack of love.
I'm addicted to it.
The editors announced a "College Modern Love Essay Contest" in February, and they just published the winner. I was curious until I read the winner's essay.
I guess it's a good essay, but some of the author's examples of "suitors" seemed like unrealistic representations of "typical" college dating. Other than Paul G., I didn't date much in college, though... maybe I dodged the weirdos that appear in people's early 20s.
She did admit that some of them were lunatics. Like the guy who spent hours banging on her door while "covering the peephole until he tired himself out." Uh, I would be a little more than creeped out if that happened. I’d probably move.
Maybe this is the way people date these days.

Stay Strong
Readers:
New month and new theme.
May's topic is resiliency. We're exploring resilience both in people as well as in the environment.
We have some ideas and projects in mind; I am requesting your input. Do you have stories about how you or someone you know has not only coped but also thrived in the face of a catastrophe? Do you have an idea about how we can examine this in the environment?
I appreciate any input and information that you have to share.
