Your body has an annoying amount of cortisol running through it. Your neighbors (a loose term used for anyone who lives in a mile radius of you) have been setting off fireworks at random times in the night for what seems like days.

It’s the weekend, or at least your definition of it, as you only have class three days a week. It’s road trip time, so you set your coordinates to someplace south of here and burn the dinosaur fuel to get there.

We get it, you drink. Maybe it’s because it's summer and there’s nothing better to do in Gainesville. Maybe everyone just so happened to turn 21 all around the same time in an uncanny way that makes you wonder if everyone in this town is a Gemini.
