He was the first person to ever buy me a drink at the bar, so he bought me a

0:10.6

medori sour. Yes, that was my drink when I was 21.

I'm Nora McEnerney and this is terrible thanks for asking. And I am in no place

0:21.8

to judge what anyone drank at age 21 or at any other age because my drink of

bike riding, everything was just so easy. It was like being reunited with a friend

1:55.8

from high school that you hadn't seen for a really long time and you just fall
