What were all the firsts there?
In rough order:
Fist fight, bicycle ride, swim, guitar, kiss, Truth-or-Dare game, tape recorder, typewriter, girl in my bed, handjob, fuck, blowjob, 35mm camera, wide-angle lens, harmonica, mandolin, drum machine, 4-track cassette recorder, electric guitar, car, gainful employment, successful encounter with Reading Capital.
It was twenty years, give or take.
Since leaving there I've never felt rooted even one single second.
