dousing houses threshold to patio, siphoning from cars to finish the
job. Shame about the luxury SUVs. I would have fit nicely in one.

of faux mansions. It should have felt better than it did. Their
lifestyle creeped me out, but they had a right to actual life. Having it
taken away cavalierly grated against what remained of my morality.
