I think it's about time for another camping trip.

Re: Private

Date: 2015-03-17 11:09 pm (UTC)I had a feeling! Next port we get with decent wilderness I'll lend you a gun, take you out scouting with me. [Assuming her warden permits it, anyway.]

Yeah. I guess I am. Used to be I blamed myself more than she blamed me...I hope it's still true but I doubt it.
You aren't anything like her, but I try to tell myself she might be more like you someday, when she figures her life out, figures out how to be around people.

No, I know you don't. But you laugh a lot. She only laughed maybe two or three times when she lived with me. Know what I mean?
