+ i'm sure that somewhere out there, there's a story about a book-loving, tea-drinking, people-hating twenty year-old college kid with bipolar disorder, a predilection for suicide, a sassy alcoholic with compulsive tendencies for a soulmate, a neanderthal linebacker of a brother that he loves and hates in equal amounts, four pet dwarves, and a husky that doubles as a bodyguard that doubles as a best friend.

+ i'm sure that this story is full of people with more flaws than is healthy, and i'm sure these people are really lovable, when they aren't making the aforementioned college kid want to burn everything. and even when they are, they're still pretty lovable.

+ i'm sure this story is littered with expletives and all the self-deprecating, bone dry humor, unnecessary bawling, and romance of the most ironic caliber in the world.

+ and i'm sure that unless i have a doppelganger or simply aren't at all unique, that story would be mine. i sincerely hope that you enjoy it more than i do.
