It must have been shortly before my last relapse and then, well flat on my back again. I have been so resentful of this last bad cold. But I did love how you pieced together those words of lost and found. Funny how the lost temper or state of inner peace is never permanent.

But the only thing I regret is that I can't just go on a rampage and break shit without having consequences, consequences such as having shit that is broken. I would follow you but Blogger isn't letting me at the moment. Which makes me angry.<br /><br />You have good taste in authors.
