The Night Shift, our former Playground team, has been retired for a year. We've met almost once a month since for a Sunday potluck. There's a lot of history between us- five years, a lot of shows, and some big life events. Craig is leaving to go back to school in Arkansas in a week so we got together for a low-key send off. As I've gotten older these type of farewells have become more common. Lives take different twists and turns, adulthood necessitates big changes, some geographical, some personal.
I'll miss Craig, he's been a great friend and a wonderful collaborator. But there is an odd affirmation when people cut their own path then take it. He may come back, he may not, whose to say what the future will hold, but it seems like the right choice for him and that's not something to regret.
