Shock is still fun. I won’t ever shut the door on it.

I am not a demon. I am a lizard, a shark, a heat-seeking panther. I want to be Bob Denver on acid playing the accordion.

I’m sad about this, but we shouldn’t have been married in the first place.

My father was always getting excited about something. It’s genetically inside me somewhere.
