When I was in college I sent Matt a flirtatious email informing him that I had just purchased a black Fender strat and needed someone to teach me lead guitar licks. He wrote back promising that he’d teach me the pentatonic blues scales if I drew some hand studies to hang in his apartment. Right about then was when I started telling people (including the guy I was dating) that I was going to marry Matt Hofmann, darnitalltoheck! Five years later, my ringed fingers can make it up and down the neck of a guitar rustily playing those blues scales, but I never got around to those hand studies. So here you go. Different medium, and a few years too late, but here it is.

We decided not to do gifts this year since we’re blowing our life’s worth to go to Argentina. But he’s taking me salsa dancing tonight, which is My Favorite-ist Thing To Do Ever. And Matt, I’ve got a gift for you. For the first time in about 45 years… I SHAVED MY LEGS!
