Beneath the Streets

I am prone to Stockholm Syndromey-ness.  No matter how terrible the situation:  bad relationship, high school, a miserable temp job, living arrangement, &c, when it’s over I am doomed to remember only the wonderful things about it and forgot why I hated it.   Such has been the case with the
