  "account": "My name is Ignatius Farray and lately I don't recognize myself, or so my wife, the comedian Petite Lorena, says. The other day we were in the kitchen at home, our elbows on the table after eating, going over our life as a couple as if it were an exam we'll have to take one day, and she told me she sees me more on top of things than ever; taking out the trash when the bag is full or washing the dishes when they pile up, and she even said that I keep putting on the perfume she gave me, which I'd never used before, nor deodorant, and that now I don't get into bed without two drops of that French bottle.",
  "summary": "What I think is that I've already been two and a half years without drinking and that it had to show in something, and that freshness and mental agility are now the new chains of my identity.",
