i’ve always been mystified by the name 7-Eleven.

namesake of my late golden retriever.

one of my favorite songs of all time, introduced to me by an old friend who was accompanying me while we lazed around in some fancy disney hotel my friend’s parents had booked and invited us to invade. when i’m 99, farting around on my deathbed, i’ll ask my grandchildren to play this song so i can feel the uncertainty of teenhood all over again.
