well if we stay out all night smoking and drinking and talking i think maybe wecould figure out how to level out the playing field for people like you and meand the guys at the end of the bar who downglass after glass without making a soundand think about giving up findingtheir place in this world.i get a call from a girl who was throwing a show. she said she had to cancel it dueto medical costs she incurred after drinking more than her body could take.she said, "my hand still hurts from where they used the IV,but other than that, i don't feel much of anything. and i'm sorry but we'll set up somethingfor some other time."i think it was laura and i who were talking about how everything important we dowe do with our hands- how we reach, how we hold, how we break, how we feel, how we move,how we toss a few back just to handle the painfrom the place where technology entered the veinin a sad attempt to keep us aliveand it's all pretty much the same hand that we're dealtand it's all pretty much the same hand that we've heldand it's all pretty much the same hand that we dealtwe'll set up something else for some other time.
