With each turn of my month at-a-glance calendar - the initial blankness, the possibilities, the undone - my heart fills with hope.
Rate-A-Date: Cade
Occupation: Corporate grunt at an investment banking firm you’ve heard of.
I’m so in love, I make it acrostic
I think I’ve never heard that said so
loudly, boldly, heavily.
Old words are new - none of the other
variegated moments of my life
eclipse old words-cum-new words,
you now the first from the bottom.
O, love, your new old words
Undo my fear, my hesitation, my memory.
Sakura Matsuri, him, and me
Dogwood flowers shone in the sun, cherry blossoms loomed overhead, and Cade and I were ushered in the gates of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden ahead of the throngs of people not affiliated with a certain investment banking firm. It was the boy’s moment. Sure, the corporate climate is umm, partly-cloudy with a high chance of tedium, but Cade has free access to most museums in Manhattan and many cool events around the city. And I get to be his invited guest. Yippee!

Back in high school, Sofia Coppola’s film adaptation of Jeffrey Eugenides’s The Virgin Suicides introduced me to Todd Rundgren and Air. After finally reading the book, I really appreciate the film for maintaining the story’s darkly comic and elegant feel.
