Hi! I'm L. XXX years old. Italian.
I've a pug, a tattoo and tons of books.
This is pretty much what you can find in my mind.
Enjoy the ride.

“After this I go to work at a pizza shop. My wife and I were college professors in Bangladesh. I taught accounting. But one dollar in America becomes eighty dollars when we send it back home.”
“We just got back from the prom.”
“Did you have dates?”
“Um, yeah.”
“What happened?”
“It has to do with alcohol. I haven’t really told the story to anyone.”
“Will you tell me?”
“…well, I’d been drinking everyday for several years. In 2009 I tried to quit. So I stopped drinking for two days, and I got so sick that I couldn’t eat or sleep. But I still decided to try to go to work. I got so weak that I passed out in the BART station while I was waiting for the train. When I woke up, I was paralyzed from the waist down.”
“Oh man.”
“You want to know the sad part?”
“What’s that?”
“I’m still drinking. Because of the loneliness.”

“What’s the most fun you’ve ever had together?”
“Probably that time we swam to the Navy Yard.”
“When was that?”
“I don’t know. Sometime in the 1940’s.”—————————

“I don’t got no struggles, man. I got divorced six years ago. Then one day I looked up my first love on Facebook, and she was still single. Now I’m marrying the girl I lost my virginity to, and hopefully we’ll grow old together.”
Meet Mohsin Shezad. I left my iPhone in the backseat of Mohsin’s cab on Thursday. When he discovered it, he drove back to where he’d dropped me off, and spent several minutes looking for me. When I finally called an hour later, he was all the way across town, but drove 30 minutes to meet me. Then he tried his damnedest to refuse a reward, saying: “Please sir, your fare was enough. Please sir, no.”
This man has a wonderful and humble soul.
After I took her photo, she stuck her cheek out for a kiss. After I gave her one, she said: “Isn’t love great?”
“Yes it is,” I replied. Then she leaned in and said:
“But sex is better.”

Just passed these two on 47th Street. Dad says the little guy marched all the way from the Brooklyn Bridge, so I thought he’d earned a signal boost.
