Dear Kate,
The first thing I can say about you is that your are fervent. I think it has always been a double-edged sword to me. I tend to value passion about something (anything for that matter) pretty highly. But I also tend to avoid people with a mission in life like the plague. This is largely due to my inability to have strong feelings about anything serious. It’s not that I think I am too cool for school, it’s just that if you think about anything enough, its actual value dissolves, or atleast it does for me.
The second thing about you is you don’t take shit, ever. I am fairly certain that regardless the situation you will not be bulldozed off your point if you feel it worth defending. While apathetics like me will more often than not just let slights slide, you aren’t afraid to say “Hey, cut that shit out.”. This so far as I have seen is a good thing.
Other than the café you and I have had very little interaction. I think I had a beer at your house once, and we may have talked about misconceptions about feminism a few times, but like many of my other friends, have been a presence in kalamazoo that haunts the same alleyways and bar stools as I do, and in that kind of relationship on the periphery, I think I can safely say you are a friend.
I have never talked or interacted with you on fb, to be honest I was kind of surprised you even had one. That being said, I am sure your unfriending will go by mostly unnoticed by you. But hey, you are on my list so it must be done. I will see you round the zoo, probably on the way to the bathroom somewhere.
Today was a great day, but tomorrow our FBfriendship will end,
Curt
