To Mike and Kevin


To my own MK (47).

I miss you guys.

TONS.

I miss you guys tons.

I miss the work and the rehearsals and the performances, sure—sure I miss those parts of our friendship.  But what I really miss is just being around you guys.

Fucking Facebook.  Today it linked me to one of the pictures from that awesome Labor Day in Jersey (I think it was Labor Day?  The day with the volleyball tournament.)

Well, that day was honestly one of my favorite days out of any friendship I’ve ever had—it is equal to the day after Mona’s wedding (that Haas and I went to) where I tagged along with you two to Jersey to watch you play tennis and then to get food-coma-ed on China Buffett.

I want you guys to come out here to Cali so badly.  I want to show you my cool house that I rent, and my high school, and my college, and I want you guys to see me in a play.  And I really, really, really want to do a play with you guys.  I think about that a lot.  I just think that we play off of each other's strengths so well, and there’s lots of scripts that would suit our dynamic.  That’s something on my personal “bucket list.”  DO A PLAY WITH MIKE AND KEVIN.

I can’t believe you and Marianne already have two gorgeous little girls, Mike.  Even more so, I can’t believe I haven’t met Gianna.  I feel like I know her, from Facebook and Mary’s blog and from pictures, but I’ve never even heard her laugh or cry.  And Lina is getting so big.  She’s a whole person now and it makes me sad that I wasn’t in NYC to be around to watch her grow up.  (And Kevin and Meaghan have that awesome lil’ dog, whom I’m also excited to meet.)

Yep.  I miss you guys.  I’ll be out there again, briefly, from Jan 28 – Feb 2.  I’m going to be auditioning for graduate programs in Acting.  Honestly, I hope I get into an East Coast school.  I miss that side of the world, the people in it, and the culture surrounding it.

Love you guys – love you guys so so so so much!

Pass the love on to your little families and the like.

  1. Wanted to tell you how proud I am of you for pursuing the MFA, keep us posted on all the developments. Hope all is well in Cali, NY MISSES YOU! and glad you seem to have so much love and joy in your life right now, that guy of yours seems great.

  2. All is very well in Cali, and I MISS NY! You'll hopefully get to meet my amazing "partner in the crime of life" in Jan/Feb -- I think he's going to be able to come with me. And if not, I can talk him up in his absence! Can't wait to see you and the girls and the pups and of course, my soul brother Mike.

    MyMK47 Reunion Show = YES.
