“You’re an impatient generation.”
“Weren’t you?”

This is my favourite family photo. It’s all old and blurry, but for some reason, I like it a lot. I was very little back then so I can’t remember when it was taken. I especially like my mother’s expression as she is holding me in her arms.

Old times.

I need someone to buy me opium.
