Dear Universe:

I need more money. As much as you can spare. I’m a verging-on-always-broke grad student who teaches young minds and is now in the process of volunteering for kids with a local organization. (Does that convince you yet, Universe?)

Also, Universe… I would like a date. Followed by another date. Followed by more dates. Please only send candidates who have proven their worthiness to you in the form of their virtues. Also, they must have a job/occupation. And some disposable income. They must be good-looking and good-humored, free of felonies, and know that books are good. Very good. Bonus if they have a dog.

Am I asking too much?

Universe? Are you still there?
