After about six months working 72 hours a week in the NBC carpenter shop, I met Mary and entered a serious relationship for the first time. For the 1997 Memoir class I wrote about this meeting in a piece called First Love.
Being on-call as a stagehand made it very difficult to build the relationship. I had to make some serious decisions about how to balance relationship, spirituality, and livelihood.
First, I had a previous commitment to be on staff at ZCLA as a full time trainee. Mary and I had an agreement that I could try that out and see how it worked.
