can't take more clothes off when you are already naked

Two weeks ago, I shared with you my feelings about reading my own writing out loud.  To recap - it was scary.  People have asked me about the actual story, so I figured I was naked enough already that showing you my actual story couldn't make me any less undressed.

So, I posted it.

If you want to know what an event horizon is - this is an article that I found that really actually explains it pretty well. . . (picture from that website - thank you Stephen Hawking for making science digestible for the common).
