When I was little, growing up in a large Italian family, you hugged and kissed everyone. Aunts, uncles, even people you didn't know well, as a show of respect. That's the way it was in my family. Today everyone seems to hug but these days it's awkward for me. At my weekly game it's how I greet and send off the fishies. But like I said, it's awkward. There's Noodles....hug him and you might get humped. But dammit, he won't allow me to not hug him. I think it's the highlight of his week and I hate to disappoint. Then there's Youth, the guy that usually tags along behind him. He's a young, good looking thing, but I don't know him very well, so why should I hug him? I guess it's because I hug the other guys, so it seems weird to leave one out. Then there's The Mayor. He turns a bright shade of crimson just talking to me, so hugging is waaay awkward. But not hugging is too! And do I really need to hug guys ...

Nice win this week, O Very one.
Yes it's true that I believe
I'm weaker than I used to be
I wear my heart out on my sleeve
And I forget the rest of me
Yes there's times I've been afraid
And there's no harm in that I pray
Cuz I'm more frightened everyday
Someone will take the hope I have away
