(Things like this are the reason I used to love but nearly hate that man. Now he’s me a year ago but ten years older, and I’ve become something more. Now I cannot hate him even a little bit.)

It’s about time somebody did.
And it’s odd that it was the highlight of the night for me, because I don’t suppose that’s the sort of thing most people say with complimentary intentions, though her’s remains a contented mystery to me. Truth be told it sounded a little like what throwing one’s hands in the air...
