we celebrated our anniversary last weekend but in classic manner I'm only getting around to this now. (my first grid post in years ... man the sharing mechanism has gotten way worse hasn't it? idk how you all do this *Rich Boy voice* on the regular, but anyway.) Grace allowed me to share some nice photos of us from over the past year to mark the occasion, the respective settings at my dear friend Chloe's wedding (which marked Grace's first Michigan visit!) and the couch where Carmy likes to snuggle up (no, the fluffy kitty is not named for The Bear). Grace is not on here and prefers not to be involved with my dumb Stories, which, you know, fair enough. just one among the many ways she gets me to log off and savor the beautiful moments of everyday life: the lavish scents of fine botanic garden flowerbeds, the catharsis of trash-talking a hyped but truly terrible novel, the poetry inherent to a long walk in the city or the careful pattern of a collage, the resplendent joys of a cozy night in. nothing need be fancy or overwrought or complicated; there is wonder also to be found in direct, blunt simplicity. I'm very grateful to met this astonishing woman in a chance encounter, blessed to have her in my life, and lucky to be here. I love you! by @poppaflam

"From the treeline blocks to the tenements / To the Mom & Pop local shop businesses / Traveled all around the world in great distances / And ain't a place that I know that bear resemblance" - Mos Def/Yasiin Bey, "Brooklyn." I could get used to calling this spellbinding, vibrant borough my home. by @poppaflam
