Hopefully I’m not alone in this. I can’t be the only survivor of an after-hours incursion into my local home improvement store. So I hope to tell this story, my story, in order to bring us all together, maybe. God, it's all so insane to say and think about, it sounds like a dream but it definitely can't be since I made it out with a few others that fateful night. I haven't seen them around town in a while, and hope they’re all right. At this point I’m just stalling myself.
