Yeah, she would've. And once our friend Lup said she wanted to curl it, that would've cracked her up too.

Look, man, I know you're not him. We are who we are because of our experiences, so I'm going to do my best not to treat you like him because we were there for over two and a half years, we faced a lot together. We weren't the same people we showed up as, in a good way, for having known each other. But I hope this doesn't settle wrong for you. Doesn't freak you out after you leave or anything. I'd show-and-tell you whatever you want, but I'm not trying to make you him. Promise.

You remind me of somebody pretty awesome, I guess. I'd like to get to know you, too.
