A great story. The first time I was ever exposed to the tale was through the portmanteau, Cat's Eye, in the mid-eighties. It reminds me of Requiem for a Dream and the way I view the film as the best thing that could possibly shown in high schools to frighten people about drug experimentation. I wonder if I'd read "Quitters, Inc." long before I ever put the first cigarette in my life I might not have ever been spending money on Blu's trying to quit.
I don't really have the wherewithal to write much tonight. I'm exhausted. My grandmother isn't doing well, and the time I spent with her and with my family after work really wiped me out.
"I Know What You Need" is next.
Followed by sleep.
Soon, I hope.
