You’re reminding me that maybe I like being a Tennessean more than I sometimes think I do.

How awesome to feel at home in the world, and finding your place in it. I loved the line about your deeply unstable and self-loathing forest fire of a personality. I see it more as a flare boom. Carefully controlled and yet dramatic and exciting in the right circumstance. Anyway to echo Kirstan's understated accolade, pretty above average.

I could not have a life further from this right now, and could not find it more relatable. (Okay, sure I could maybe be further out but I live in a big Midwestern city and never meet garage weirdos and my kids don’t have a yard or a trampoline and my ass is a wallflower) (point being love this)

Funny, funny again, impressive and homeric on your part finding 30 + grease points.
