Thank you to my family, genetic and adopted, for not assuming me dead in my long periods of silence and giving my stuff away, friends for never pointing out that I’ve been wearing the same thing for days, Julie for playing hooky with me the last thirty years, and Bryan, Wynter, Kayl, Gage, and Kole for sowing love in this heart.

  Greatest thanks of all to the God I used to say shows me great things, but these days just mostly freaks me out with stuff I never saw coming. I’ve learned to quit saying “I’m ready,” because I never am.
