List of things that remind me of someone:

- HSN and QVC
- Teletubbies
- Demolition (long story)
- angels
- swords
- cannolis
- cursing in Italian
- cats
- Mayan culture
- clubbing
- rock music
- turn of the century aviation
- the Voisin
- straightjackets
- Greek food (stuffed grape leaves in particular)
- rough sex
- sweet smiles with bad intentions

List of moments I'd like to rewind:

- First glimpse of Zee I ever got. I remember thinking no man could touch that Amazon goddess and live to tell about it. I did.

- First time we kissed. She was half dead in my arms, and I was seriously fucked up 'cause I thought I lost her...still felt like I'd just won the Lottery.

- The last day we spent at home in LA. Slept late on a Saturday, Kel was stretched out on her chest and Hardy was wedged between us in bed. Zee was awake, I was half asleep, but I still heard her muttering under her breath in Italian...she was talkin' to the baby in her belly, and I knew right then that I couldn't have asked for a more perfect woman to be the mother of my child.

- The last time she said 'I love you' to me. It was in our suite just before I left to take May to see my folks while she took care of some stuff on her own. She kissed me and said it, and I left. Didn't think about it, didn't stop to consider it...I wanna go back and treasure that moment.

- The moment I was told my girlfriend had been murdered. I know, how come, right? Maybe if I went through it again...maybe if I torture myself enough with the reality of that moment...maybe I can finally feel the pain of it. Maybe then I can finally grieve for the woman I love.

Sporks. And coffee. And Chinese Laundry shoes. I don't know if I can wear those boots ever again.

You have to. For her...to remind you how much she loved ya.

Coffee...she left behind this letter for me, and I don't even remember what it said. There was a coffee stain on it, where she set the cup down when it was damp? That goddamn stain was all I cared about.

I don't need shoes to remind me of that, honestly.

Yeah, she...had to have her coffee. I found this...coffee mug, at the Slayer house. I forgot I'd left it there. A big bumblebee coffee mug, one of those that can hold like a whole pot of coffee, damn near. She gave it to me.

No, but still...

For my birthday, Zee found and restored my old Voisin...a 1920's biplane I used to make my first flight in Australia the last time I was alive. I'm having it shipped back to Vegas so I can just...sit in it. I did, sometimes, back in LA. Just to remember, just to feel that energy around me. That's what those boots oughta do for you. Bring her close.

That sounds like my girl...the mug, I mean. I think I remember seeing her shop for that, too...one of the times I had to take away her credit cards. Heh.
