Isolation Diary: “I love you all, I really really do.” One of my favorite quotes from “Dracula: A Musical Nightmare” which Jessie and I directed at Sacred Fools back in 2002. (Joe Jordan as Dracula) So Dracula might have meant this in a sly, sinister way, but I don’t. Exactly. Sometimes my love of people is quite particular. But sometimes more broad and encompassing. What a bunch of wonderful people there are in this world! Doing things I couldn’t possibly do. Every night I take a moment to consider with gratitude everyone who has contributed to my dinner (which I am currently eating alone). There is the actual food, then the dishes, some which are gifts, the table (which is usually now the kitchen island built by Jeffer Whitman so he gets a thanks every night), the forks and spoons, the jars and other packaging, the list goes on and on. And nearly every moment of our day is like that. Filled with the contributions of other people.

You’re in it, Ruthie, the connectivity whorl! Can’t get to go there without gratitude. You are the best. “I take pen to say I love you and I miss you …” -Mina MurrayPaul B.
