I reread it once, and then again It’s si I’d come up with on my own

I’m reminded of the day I showed up at Millie’s last suhith the n and music turned up loud We drove toward San Luis Obispo, and found a tiny neery there, had a lunch of y IPAs, and then drove home, quieter on the way back, with full bellies and the sound of flapping air and Tom Petty in the car It was the perfect day with the perfect person

And I reed to get up on the board while the rest of us gave up and watched fro a blue two-piece She didn’t bother to spread out her towel; her stos were dusted with coarse sand, her eyes closed and face tilted up to the sky We were new friends; she’d only been out of the relationship with Dustin for a matter of weeks at that point, and it was the first time we’d really talked about it—after a decent a on my end: about how distracted Dustin was, about hoeird it felt to be single, about how relieved she was to no longer be living with someone with such a hot temper

I see our moments in every line of this profile, except one: I don’t kno she knows that I can’t i on a date with only drinks, that a first date over coffee seems odd to me I wonder whether she sees deeper, too, to a place even I can’t really access, and which understands better than ht of Millie also writing a profile for herself, for others out there to read

Stephen (Ed) D’Onofrio

I live in one of thea bit of a ho outdoors, but I prefer the quiet version: the beach at night, the shaggy coastline, the hills at dusk Some people are happiest out and about—me, I’m happiest when I’oodjokes I may never be the first across the finish line, but I will be laughing the entire trip nofor soht next to ood

Christopher Hill

Stephen (Ed) D’Onofrio
