    A Night To Remember This was less of a night to remember, and more of a night that is etched into my brain, a night that I try so hard to forget. It never evades my memory, no matter how badly I wish it would. It caused me great pain and worry, but I will always remember it, because it was a sign that I wanted to get better. It was a sign that there was something more inside of me than just those terrible, awful things. This day was a priceless crystal vase slipping out of somebody 's clumsy,…
