As some of you may already know, Karen and I got divorced last month after two and a half years of separation and more than six years of marriage. I’m not sure what explication I’m willing — or able, really — to provide on the matter.

I can say that we are still on very good terms. Indeed, we carpool together to work on those mornings I manage to get myself out of bed on time.

It was 10 years ago this fall that Karen and I met online, back when that was an oddity. Despite the turn of our tale, I think it’s appropriate to note — on this Thanksgiving Day — how grateful I am, and how grateful I always will be, that Karen came into my life.
