sooo... i walked into my new favorite coffee shop near my work and noticed the finger staring at me.  i squealed with delight.  after getting my soy latte with "mystery flavor," i darted back to work and looked at the back.  my name was on it.  :D  i grinned.  so many memories from living in the back of the bookstore for a week with seth.  and then living with otis pig in our ex-meth house and cat in the wall, piper.  i thought of all the fun adventures erin and i had.  the delicious vegan food nicki made...

I'm PEEVED.

I've bit my tounge one too many times and remained dispassionate beyond disbelief. But this time things have gone too far. Way too often I hear young people in Spokane talking about their glamorous plans to move away. While sometimes this can be a good thing (especially for those who've not lived elsewhere) usually its just an unoriginal case of "the grass is greener" and a failure of personal strength and imagination to take ownership for one's hometown to make things better where it is most needed.
