Some people like to relax and kick back with their friends just talking and having a drink which is obviously highly pleasurable. Some people like to be entertained by music or a movie; some people like to make some jokes with people they like, maybe at a bar or at someone’s house. Some people like to lay around with another person, just touching, or to prepare food, alone or with others while listening to music that they feel a particular affinity for. But sometimes people like to thrust themselves into the howling wind and snow, arms tied behind their backs. I prefer to open my mouth wide open knowing what will happen if I’m just holding my mouth open, ready to respond or yell or whatever seems appropriate. You know, I keep my mouth at the ready to make a lot of noise. And sometimes it becomes filled with hard packed snow or with sand, sand being more of a problem, since, you know, it won’t melt.
