Mykala with Giraffe
It may look like Mykala was Photoshopped into this picture, but she was, in fact, not.

Here’s an excerpt from Metacritic’s synopsis of the 2004 film Garden State:
Her warmth and fearlessness give him the courage to open his heart to the joy and pain of the infinite abyss that is life.
I had a wonderful weekend with Mykala: we celebrated my birthday Friday night with a little dental school shirt shopping and Cheesecake Factory dinner. It’s almost warm enough to eat outside — summer is still struggling to get its act together. I pretended to be warm for the duration of our meal out on the restaurant’s patio… but I somehow don’t think I was fooling anyone. If Mykala asks though, I was perfectly toasty — I have to maintain some masculine bravado, even if it’s only in the realm of temperature tolerance.
The two of us, before heading out for a nice evening.
This is Mykala’s new bike! We will go for wonderful rides.
Mykala, just a second ago: “I’m going to bite your earlobe off and spit it up your nose.”
Happy Birthday, Mykala!
The “Birthday” text got a little cut off, but I really thought that gave the cake more character.
Mykala’s red velvet cake was a little too warm for frosting. Whoops.
Happy Birthday, dear Mykala! As you turn a year older, I’d like to take a moment to remind you that the best is yet to come. You are always on my mind, and always in my heart. It bears repeating: Happy Birthday — I’m looking forward to celebrating many more with you.
Love,
Alex
Christmas gift from Mykala! Love this one. More pictures of these when they are on the wall
With blizzard-like conditions, sub-zero windchills, 1/4 mile visibility, and 2-4 inches of snow forecast, we’ve got the recipe for a tasty pre-winter weather treat! Unfortunately, the weather outside is frightful because some people still have some place to go. For example: Mykala is alone in Saint Paul waiting to pick her parents up from the airport. They’ve been delayed and rerouted to Iowa — I hope everything works out A-O.K. In the meantime, I’ll be here wrapping presents, thinking about taking an indoor run, and eagerly anticipating Christmas tomorrow. Perhaps Mykala and I will even play a digital game of Scrabble in which she’ll spell auditors on a triple word score with a 50 point bonus for using all 7 letters. We will see.
