Well, I did it. I went over to his house for the first time. And even despite all my pre- and re-conceived notions of what his life would be like, I loved being under its roof.

The peace came from the little things that make a house a home, the things I could identify with. Sitting on a couch positioned around a TV; dust on the baseboards; shoes at the door; watching him bound up the stairs two at a time.

I put my pants on both legs at a time, but I am comforted to know you put yours on one leg at a time.
