ted is good to talk to. he offers me cigs, lights them for me with a playboy bunny ("to be ironic. my dad found it in a ditch. i would never pay for such a thing") zippo, and thanked me for tagging along with him to elyria. i love how he sings along to every song. i love how he makes me feel cool just by the way he carries on a conversation. it makes me feel cool just to be talking to him, and not just talking to, but being listened to by him. i like it. i hope he comes back next semester.

one step forward - one step back
