i guess i

these are some fragments of a little moleskin that started one of the most important friendships in my life.  before we even knew much about each other, we started passing this notebook back and forth throughout the school day like little school girls passing notes (m's idea).  this notebook and the subsequent friendship has become more important to my experience and sense of self than i can even express.

this was back at the beginning of so much change and ache and joy and shift.
in so many ways, everything has changed.
 in so many ways, everything is the same.
