I'm mad I didn't keep closer touch. I'm mad I didn't make a better effort to see him when he was in Florida or when I was feel angry. I'm mad I didn't keep closer touch. I'm mad I didn't make a better effort to see him when he was in Florida or when I was in Chicago. I'm mad I didn't spend that extra few minutes in Zoom at the end of a meeting, that one day when it was just me and him bullshitting about conspiracies and electric cars.
