No Goodbyes

Evan doesn't like saying, "Goodbye." Now to be honest, neither do I. Instead of trumpeting my departure to all present, I prefer to just slip out quietly from a party. My Irish Exit or French Leave probably annoys some people, but I guess the point is that I understand the emotion that could be behind Evan's baffling behavior:

Normally, at the end of a phone call, Evan just hangs up. No "goodbye." No "see you later." Nothing. I always have to look at the phone and see that the call ended a few seconds ago to know we had finished talking. But lately he has started ending his calls with a "love you" or a "see you soon." It has been lovely.
