“At some point you do not need to talk to have a conversation. The conversation exists whether you have it or not. It continues silently in a parallel dimension of the marriage. They both pause to let it run its course toward another stalemate.”
Chris Bachelder, Abbott Awaits

“The view from the window, particularly if you enjoy neon, is extraordinary.”
Chris Bachelder, Bear v. Shark

“The old Televisions had an off switch.”
Chris Bachelder
