You might not have given any of your lovely words in decades, but you will be missed.

"What I was really hanging around for, I was trying to feel some kind of a good-by. I mean I've left schools and places I didn't even know I was leaving them. I hate that. I don't care if it's a sad good-by or a bad good-by, but when I leave a place I like to know I'm leaving it. If you don't, you feel even worse."

Sadly, Vonnegut was not on my HS reading list, but I DID manage to read "Slaughterhouse" while at uni, and yeah, it was awesome...

I love it. And I read his other book's too, and they were just as all bizarre and wacky. I just love his black humour.
