On Monday, some RP students and I had dinner at Plaza Sing and because it was too noisy one of them suggested that we go out to pray. He said he knew a quiet place nearby and so we followed him.

"Thanks ar" Half the time, after every few sentences, I have to go back and explain which "Jason" I was talking about, or rephrase a sentence. And I got super irritated. "I'm in a box ma" "Which one?" A friend recently told me we are an interesting couple. "You are blur and he's straight." Well, yep that's us, interestingly, for better or for worse.
