breakfast at 10pm is a good way to break two years no contact. they can apologize all they want and say whatever they want and you can just sit there eating a pancake. you don't have to apologize back at all (they don't deserve it, babe)

I often bring my pocket moleskin with me on nights out. Writing/wired headphones on the train ride home is healing; a stream of consciousness under the influence is truly uninhibited.
