Mom and Dad, dianks for your usual response of confused ac cep­
tance, of eventiling from early decision applications to camp and
Rome. Dad, thanks for the driving; Mom, thanks for the late-night
TV. Nana and Papa, our Wednesday night dinners out arc always
the highlight of my week. Manda, for god’s sake, clean up your half
of the bathroom. © You’re the best. Jack and Chris, thanks for
your occasional hilarious attempts to include me, in either the
*NSYNC singalongs or the Playstation.
To Holy Child: “And what about us, was it really that bad? It’s
hard to believe I want a highway roadstop more than all the times
we had” - Dar Williams

“What is that feeling when you’re driving away from people and
they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? -it’s the
too-huge world vaulting us, and it’s good-by. But we lean forward
to die next crazy venture beneadi die skies.” -Jack Kerouac

“we threw our heads back
and then we laughed until
ire cried, cuz the world is
absurd, and beautiful, ;uul
sm all’’
