"You know, I'm pretty sure I've said the same thing before," Carla Jean says, giving a slight shake of her head, though there's no disagreement in it. It's just the way the world works, or seems to, and it sucks, but there's nothing to be done about it, either. If there were, she would have a long time ago. As it is, she's got more here than she thought she would, which says a lot on its own. The way she sees it, there's just no sense in being held back by all that, but then, she's had a long while to come to terms with what she's lost, inasmuch as she ever could. "In the meantime, I might be able to help with the gettin' drunk and ice cream."
