We drifted apart (no bad blood or anything), but we still keep in touch from time to time. Today he makes a great living as a professional poker player (not one you'd have seen on TV). |
Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about your partner in crime. Good for him. Poker is the epitomy of darkworking.

Ironically what I want more than anything is to want something again.
