It’s amazing how you think you can get some people out of your life, but instead they just hang in there like cold symptoms that never want to go away. “Evil” called last night all thrilled with his new cell phone. Grrr. It’s the first time I have heard his voice since he ditched out of town a month ago. We chatted. He likes his job. He has a new car. Things in the big city are boring. There’s nothing to do. He’s gonna harass me on the phone when he’s bored. I told him that if was going to call when he was bored, that I was going to call him when I was drunk, depressed and inconsolable.
