[ so many people have too much going on. please find happiness. ]
Maybe someday you'll meet enough new people to believe it, too. [ he'll hope for that much for her before he laughs and they take take some stupid little line tickets for the blood bank, like they're at the DMV. ] And that's kind of you to say.
