Happiest of Birthdays, Buddy ol’ Pal via the time travel of words! Saw the movie last Thursday and will again. So great to spend time with Ray Garraty again. I am also gifting myself on your birthday yet another listen-through to the On Writing audiobook — love!

I barely know I’m doing them! But I like it. Almost dying from pneumonia makes up in length of suffering what get sucked over a damn offers in terrifying intensity, I’d say! We are practically twins. 🤜🏼🤛🏻
