Five f***ing years, y’all! Today you all made us exist for FIVE YEARS!! (Javier told me I couldn’t say f**k.) Happy Independent Bookstore Day and Exile day to all that celebrate!!!

Two faces of the most happy (Javier can’t smile) and tired faces you’ve seen. We don’t participate in social media the way we would like, mostly because we are old (Javier is older) and don’t know how. That doesn’t mean we don’t love you all, deeply.

We don’t think, with all the best words and authors surrounding us, there is a way to really let you know what you meant to us today, and what you’ve meant, always.

This tired selfie is our way of saying, and expressing, our deepest, most possibly sincere, post we could ever do.

There are two of us, officially, but we are NOTHING, without you all. We are nothing without our friends who are there when we aren’t able to be there looking at you Tom Flynn and Kevin Furlong).

There are days, and then there is this day. We are so thankful for this day. And, damn, do we love you all. More than you’ll ever, ever, ever know.
