Earlier
this afternoon I was watching The Mentalist on Hulu, and Patrick said
to another character, “See you in the funny papers.” I nearly gasped.
Terence Burke used to say that. Thing is, today’s heat and humidity had
me thinking about Terence. “He would love this,” I thought. He really
liked weather like this, it was cray cray. But to be thinking about
Terence and then suddenly hear his favorite way to say “good bye”? See
you in the fu…
Genine was a high school friend. Brief, bright and deep, that was our love, from about mid-freshmen year to the summer of junior year. I wish I could find my goddamn yearbook so I could see what we wrote into the blurbs on each others' pages at graduation. Was it "remember when we..." and was it promises to keep in better touch? It's things like that you grasp for, when you find out a one-time friend is gone.
