EVERYTHING IS COVERED IN SILENT WHITE. I'M REMEMBERING HOW BRENDAN TOLD ME RIGHT AT THE OUTSET THAT NATHAN WOULD END UP HURTING ME... WHAT CAN I SAY THOUGH, I'LL MAKE SACRIFICES FOR A PARTICULAR TYPE OF HUMAN TOUCH.
GODDAMN, IT'S ARCTIC OUT HERE TONIGHT... OFF IN THE DISTANCE I CAN SEE A BUNCH OF SNOWMEN DOTTING THE LANDSCAPE OF THE FROZEN-OVER LAKE. LOT OF FOLKS MAKING THE BEST OF THE FRIGID CONDITIONS, APPARENTLY.
