I want to sit down with a cold beer and listen to my sister tease me about how I'm still an inch shorter than her and my arms aren't as strong. Then I want to watch some crummy old movie on the TV, you know, one that'll make me cry because it's Christmas and all. Then I want to crawl into a warm bed and forget that I'm in a city where penguins need overcoats and even then they're still complaining about the weather. I want to do all that knowing I can wake up in the morning and catch the first train back to California without breaking a contract. Do you understand where I'm coming from, Mr.Grey?”
