Playback
If you’re looking for a trippy five minutes, have iPhoto play back the last four months of your life in random order, each photo getting no longer than three seconds on your screen.
Cut to: playing with Pano at our old apartment,
plated dishes at culinary school, white coated new cook friends, a freshly beheaded lobster’s twitchy death,
snow,
Halloween party prep,
our long Christmas drive,
more snow,
new glasses, apartment hunting in no fewer than five hundred places, Jane Krakowski as a child actor,
photos of some things we sold, some things I cooked, funny things in stores,
holiday parties, the Cracker Barrel, the Mississippi River at night, a bad milkshake,
photos of photos,
a wall I painted over,
all the holes I filled (come on, I’m talking SPACKLE),
tons of random hold-your-arm-out photos,
an apartment we almost committed to in a moment of pure insanity… Definitely looks like it’ll be ready on time, right?
and finally, our perfect new home.
It’s been a long four months, but I’m feeling pretty good.
