Quote

I run with a credit card and a cell phone, so when there is not a 7-Eleven around, like some of the country roads out there, I can get him to deliver a pizza to me. And I kind of give them a coordinate, a corner.

Until then, I'll just keep plodding onward, putting one foot in front of the other to the best of my ability. Smiling the entire time.
