1.
tpau You put up with me, but not with my bullshit. I promised you almost 14 years ago that you weren't going to be able to get rid of me. Not only did I keep my word, you did an even better job of sticking with me.
2.
morgi You were my first friend at Brandeis. We share a love of the absurd that I cherish. Blorp!
3. My mother. We've always had a rocky relationship, largely because I always remind her of my father, and I tended to act like Dad's surrogate/proxy. But we have some amazing, deep. intelligent conversations, and I think we can relate to each each other far better as adults. I'm going to miss seeing her every week.
4. My soon-to-be-ex-wife. How do you get over someone with whom you are still deeply in love? I still think about her all the time. And about how much I miss her. I want her to be happy, but I hate that it can't be with me.
5. Some may see this as a cheat, but me. I mean a lot. I have to remind myself of that. Certain people tell me that I have a tendency to undervalue myself, and let others take advantage or abuse me. I have to remember to assert myself, and take pride in being Berek. If you don't love yourself, how can you expect anyone else to love you?
Day Seven: Four turn-offs.
Day Eight: Three turn-ons.
Day Nine: Two images that describe your life right now, and why.
Day Ten: One confession.
