Tesla Schaeffer is the love of my life.

In a recent e-mail to Tesla, I wrote:

"Life has been crazy, in completely different but completely empathetic ways from your craziness. India and I are wrestling like Jacob and his god, but to continue the metaphor, it is a struggle in love."

Today she writes me:
"wrestle away, my love. thats where god is. and in those moments when both you and india herself are lying sweat-drenched, black and blue and wasted on the ground, kiss her and tell her that you love her."


It makes me cry with gratitude to have a friend like Tes. (Her graduate school proposal is also brilliant - Get Ready, World!)
