I have a deep abiding love for our city. As a native, I have been witness to her ups and to her downs. With each passing year I am reminded about her uniqueness and her beauty.

This seems almost exactly how things are now. Maybe that was the point.
Why does the vet still look all beat up from the first one? I thought these were supposed to be different scenarios. In all seriousness, though, maybe it would have been better to have a middle ground between the first one (really super bad) and this one (super good).
