Let us toast to animal pleasures, to escapism, to rain on the roof and
instant coffee, to unemployment insurance and library cards, to absinthe
and good-hearted landlords, to music and warm bodies and
contraceptives... and to the "good life", whatever it is and wherever it
happens to be.
- Hunter S. Thompson
Everyone has those people in your life: encouraging the endless hysteria, attentiveness to all your pointless stories, memories full of inside jokes, and deep down in the crevasses of your soul--the parts of your life you cannot live without.
And it is with great pleasure that I am able to convince such characters to be a part of my life on a regular basis. I don't see them very often anymore, but when I do, we tend to act as if we were never apart.
