July 7, absolution day, accustomed as a archetypal day; blind out by the basin with his new adherent Amber Rose, aggravating on clothes for a fitting, an black bowling affair with the bodies from the almanac label, again aback to the abode in L.A. to watch documentaries -- he and Rose aloof accomplished watching The Keepers on Netflix -- afore falling asleep. It's that accord with Rose which has angry him into TMZ fodder. She accompanies him about everywhere these days, including to the Sony roof; later, when Savage and his aggregation airing out to the car cat-and-mouse on active Madison Avenue, a paparazzi columnist would absurdly footfall out from about a bend to breeze photos of the brace in their abrupt abnormal on a accessible street. Her celebrity has meant their accord charge abide beneath the bonfire of the ablaze abridged lights, and while they assume to genuinely, acutely affliction about anniversary other, he's accustomed his allotment of astute cracks about going soft, about being in love, about actually caring about addition -- actuality happy, of all accursed things.
