I know they're not getting divorced or anything, but when your parents argue it makes the whole universe seem like it's tipping, like everything could change if they got mad enough at each other, like the world isn't a safe place. And of course, that's true, isn't it? The world is not a safe place.

They do sometimes go crazy, these people, because the world is telling them not to want the things they want. It can seem saner to give up-But then one goes insane from giving up.

I like to be direct. Okay, I said. But I warn you, I like to be evasive, inserutable and generally send mixed messages. I doubt it. Human interaction is not my strong point, I told him.

We shouldn't piss them off, explained Frankie, because who knows what they'll do now that they've united.

The universe is seeming really huge right now. I need something to hold on to.

I suffer migraines. I do not suffer fools.

I looked at her. my lovely, tall mother with her pretty coil of hair and her hard, bitter mouth. Her veins were never open. Her heart never leapt out to flop helplessly on the lawn. She never melted into puddles. She was normal. Always. At any cost.
