Sorry for the delay, but I'm back... with a very personal story.

Mikey has been my BFF since 16. I’m 38. That’s More than half my life.

He’s always down for literally anything and will always offer to be the designated driver. He is generous and considerate as hell when he’s trying to be. He was the funniest person I knew before moving to Chicago for comedy and meeting real comics. He’s fun. He’s kind. He is adaptable. He is chill. The most calm voice in the room. But also down to party. He’s just cool. And fun. And my people know and love him. He’s met my gramma. He went with me to Vermont for my birthday.

After my gramma died.He’s was there after my brother cut me off from him and his kids 2020 because I sent him a Christmas card that had a hand painted penguin in a mask and Santa hat so he told me, I quote “I know how you are” before never speaking to me again.

When my maga momma did the same to me a few years later? Mike was there. Distracting me. Offering support. A shoulder. Reassurance. Kindness. Peace. When nobody else ever did.
