gus.

i have a friend and his name is gustave.  we call him “gus” for short.  he’s part of a pretty large circle of friends that i have and we hang out fairly often.

i found out last night that he’s really good at picking up broken conversations.  you know when a few people are talking about something and all of a sudden the topic changes and you’re left with the inevitable, “what were we taking about?”  that happened numerous times last night and each time, even if it was much later in the evening, gus remembered the topic.

take the time you’re enjoying this weekend to pay close attention to the people around you.  it’ll be worth it, trust me.
