beautiful as always, while i read this, the song "prosthetic love" by typhoon came on. lyrics seemed poignant:

each time I wake I’m still alive / outlived my expiration date imagine my surprise

a backwards take on the book of Job / his life was wager and mine’s a joke

give him what he wants he will never know / he's tied up trying to let himself go

of everyone I ever knew / I’ve gotten used to you

i’ve grown attached to you being here / of everyone I ever knew

i learned to count on you

What a beautifully written and heartfelt piece! It's a reminder that sometimes, in the face of life's uncertainties and challenges, "boring" can be an incredible gift. Your ability to find solace and excitement in the simple, everyday moments of life with a loved one is truly inspiring. It's a testament to the power of love and resilience in the face of adversity. Wishing Jake and you all the best on your journey together! 💕
