Gary fixed the dishwasher. Next he’s building the new fire escape. He renovated the horror movie that was my upstairs apartment neglected and ruined by the man who was determined to destroy it. I just got lucky I guess. I discovered one or two tricks that intrigued me since I started following the crazy low fat vegan cook on Instagram. Best trick was gochujang. Wowee. I added it to my hummus tonight. Now Juno award winning hummus. Almost on top of all the marking but am yet to spend the time on the journals. Hard to do the journals and emotional, personal and proof of writers being writers. Best moment last week was after class ended and the shy guy returned when I was there all alone to ask me what I thought of his writing. It was about being in love and not knowing if the woman who was the subject of his desire felt the same way about him. It was well written but more importantly it was a watershed moment for him about the meaning of writing in his life, the unexpected resolution and gift of it. How sweet and nice.
