Figured out my life, at 16! I got a part time job bagging groceries. I had a girlfriend. I didn’t need anything else my life. I could support Heather and myself on my 9 hour a week (and I’m pretty sure) under minimum wage job, fuck school. A real thing I said to my mom was: “You don’t understand love! (she had been married to my dad for 20+ years up to this point) What Heather and I have is real!”
