Acknowledgments

Here are the people I’d like to acknowledge. I’d like to thank my team at the Erie Art Museum for being awesome and putting on awesome shows that inspire me to do things, Chuck, Maddy, and Matt for reading through the first (or second) and giving me candid reactions and advise, Branislaus for being my favorite band mate and for listening to me complain a lot, my grandma for liking my poetry and listening to me brag, my mom for being a cool mom and (maybe) reading a draft, Courtney for living with me and dealing with me on a regular basis, Rick and Sarah for making a dream of mine (a couple actually) come true, Mabel for being the hostess with the mostess, and Brittiny for taking on the world with me and coping with the sysiphean task of being my wife like a champ.

I might have forgotten someone, and if I did, I’m sorry.
