Just because you just must.
They let me carry the cake when Trici arrived for her surprise party. I was scared of falling and dropping the cake. But I'm even more scared of the time when she's not around anymore. And I can't just call to arrange coffee with her for shits and giggles. I realized Trici is a big part of me, my life.

"There was a pretty grey parakeet who had learned to recognize human things - triangle shapes and car keys and the color blue - and to speak words for them. This little parakeet worked so hard to remember these things, and it had an efficient faraway female voice like a telephone operator in Texas. The parakeet made me realize how hard it is to learn anything in life, and even then, there's no guarantee you might need it."
