I’ll be escaping to the Santa Fe desert the day after classes are finished —

It’s been an impossible month: stupid drama in my social circles; professional tumult; and the most world-destroying all being my best friend was changing a flat tire when he was struck and killed by a drunk driver.

I would love to talk when I’m there. The plan is to spend a week alone, writing and licking my wounds, before I drive up to see my family. KP will fly in then, too.

I’ve needed a friend for a while now, but too busy, sad and isolated to come out of my shell 😞
