dead to me

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

That’s absolutely fair. 

Besides, single ain’t so bad if it looks like you.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

Are you swearing off women?

I met my woman. I don’t believe in settling for less.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

You’ve proven you can be a stable one-woman man. That’s half the battle already. 

That’s never been a problem for me.

I am glad to be done with that though.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

You’re not the hopeless case here. I am. 

Happily single sounds better than recently widowed.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

I can read the story on pot brownies while doing the mattress mambo. 

That does check all your boxes.

I’ll be looking to you to keep the hope alive for true love.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

God no. I want to die either while eating pot brownies or doing the mattress mambo. 

You can read the story eating pot brownies.

The pot might help.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

That does sound romantic. Then we can race our wheelchairs around the halls until we forget who we are. 

But die in each other arms after re-reading the book of your life.

Or something like that.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

That’s what I keep hearing. 

One day, maybe when I’m seventy and can’t run around anymore. 

You’ll fall in love and get married in a nursing home. That seems appropriate for you.

Probably meet them in the reading room. Over puppets.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

Everyone gets their own happy ending. Look at me, I never married and I’m having a ball. 

No one could ever keep up with you, Liv.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

Yours is included. 

But I guess we don’t all get Meredith and Maddox’s happy ending.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

I know of two successful marriages and one of them is still somewhat controversial. 

Mine’s alright.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

This is why marriage as an institution is faulty. 

Ain't all bad.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

They’ve been on limbo for a while now. I think it’s time Gigi got some sort of closure. 

G’s loyal to a fault. She’s never gonna let go to get proper closure.

She still acts like they’re married. 

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

Are he and Gigi back together?

No, he finally knocked up Meredith. So that’s probably the end of G and Maddox forever now.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

I’m staying with a friend right now but I might take you up on that later. To shake things up. 

How have you been? I’ve been talking a lot. It’s your turn. 

Been alright. Probably going back west next month.

Maddox came by G’s earlier. That was laughable.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

I’ve been wanting to come to visit for a while but I was dating someone and you know how that goes. 

Yeah, I know how that goes.

Offer still stands though. You know you’re welcome at my place any time.

[gaul-wren]

liv-paz‌:

They don’t have the cuteness of elementary or the filter of a high schooler. 

I’m more afraid of a middle schooler than walking alone at night in LA. 

LA’s not so bad. You should have come to visit more. You’re tough, if you can handle high school you can handle the west coast.
