I still can't believe you did it, Alex. Every time I think back, it gives me chills. You just freaked. Maybe the guy was a little out of line. I can agree with that. But he didn't deserve that. Not just for talking trash when he'd had a bit too much to drink. But you didn't even stop and consider the circumstances. Hell, I'm not even sure you were capable of rational thought. I swear your eyes turned red and it looked like your jugular was about to burst. If life were like the cartoons, steam would have been coming out of your ears ( ... )

I remember the time when you were, what - 12? 13? We were up waaaay too late and getting high off overtiredness and processed sugar. At one point, I burst out laughing at your mom’s can of “niblets” and you had to gag me with an oven mitt. Then you put a Cheeto between your nose and upper lip and marched around the room like Charlie Chaplin in the Great Dictator. Finally, we snuck out into the yard and sat in your old rickety tree fort until it started to get light, huddled under windbreakers that only seemed to hold in the chill. I’ve never told anyone what you whispered to me that night. It doesn’t seem like such a secret now, of course, but I crossed my heart and hoped to die, and I’d like to think that still means something.

Pretty good...did you find mine amusing?

I'm glad you didn't tell anyone that I really wanted to be a woman when I grow up.

Yours was great!

Well, your childhood secret isn’t such a secret any more. But I’m still honored you trusted me w/ it.
