I saw Emers0n today for the first time in a couple of months.  We went to N0rthridge Mall and I actually had a good time with him.  And I actually did not smoke.  And I actually let myself indulge and have some chili cheese fries at Tommies.  Which were so good that even thinking about it now gives me minimal guilt.  

I remember during the summer Emerson would drop everything he was doing to come get me and take me out to eat or somewhere to spend the night.  I used to treat him so bad but I want to be a better friend.  I take for granted how down for me he is.
