I knew I was in for a hell of a night. The first thing Liz did after she had pulled me down on the couch was ask what movie I wanted to watch. After going through her movie stack, I finally decided on one that looked like an adventure movie. Cool. Liz pulled herself up from the floor where she had been sitting up on to the couch. With a sigh she leaned back and opened her can of Red Bull. Looking at me with tired eyes, she said, "Life can be shit sometimes, G. You gotta learn to take the moments when it isn't and hold on to them."

I started at her in silence, not knowing what to say. She finally broke eye contact in favor of looking at the screen. I turned my head to also look at the screen, but I wasn't taking any of it in. As the opening previews played, I thought about what Liz had said. She was right.

I woke up sometime around 3 pm, and glanced around. Oh, right. I was at Liz's place. With a groan, I picked myself up off the floor, wondering how I got there in the first place, then I went to find Liz. She was in the backyard under a bush wearing a cape. Huh.
