Ode to Activity Buddy

With you I am free
to theatre or museum.
swing or salsa.
Sip champagne
while blogging silently side by side.

We graced Edison's basement jazz
dressed up on a school night.
We Yoga'd with the best teachers and the worst.
We wrote our grad school essays at Panera Bread and other LA cafes with internet.
We quit our jobs and packed our rooms all in the same month.
We bicycled once down budlong to USC, ran around the track, jumped into the pacific ocean
We have journal'd at Coffee Bean listening to USCers tryin to act hardcore.
And sent smiles via icards.

I will miss you Activity Buddy, especially on those nights when life waits outside the door
& I need someone to elbow me to leave the house.
I will miss you and your laughter.
