- Have you ever forgotten your height?
- When you're standing next to an old friend, do you often feel compelled to grab their hand and say "Don't go, please stay?"
- Do you often kick yourself for saying things you should have taken back?
- Do you blush when someone calls your name?
The night is cold, and the stars are so bright, shining sharp pinpricks. And I want to be out in it. I am longing for long romantic nights again, but all I seem to get is nights in separate chairs in separate desks. Or on the couch, falling asleep on each other's shoulders while the television speaks softly its hypnotism.

Usually, I am the one doing the leaving. Every four years or so, packing up my house, my life, and taking off to someplace else and leaving a life behind me.
Now, my best friend is leaving tomorrow (on my birthday), and I am sitting at work trying not to cry. I am doing all of the customary "Don't cry don't cry don't cry" things I do: biting lips, keeping my mind busy, looking at the celing, averting eyes. And it's not working.
