crescent city.....

i can smell the river from my desk. the fresh scent of stale fish and raccoon poo. don't worry, it's more romantic than it sounds. soleil (cat) seems to quite enjoy it. she's generally the shy one, but she's flat out taking in the fishy aroma. i don't blame her.

it's hotter here than i remember.

boy's out playing guitar on the roof, it's like a mating ritual i think. emo kids, whatever shall we do?

ever wonder how you got here? twenty two and nothing to do ... but there's too much in my head. then i remember that i drove here just nine months ago with two cats in the back seat and a boy singing along. still, i don't remember the time in between ... just the pain of job after job and the heartache of eating ramen again.

it's warmer than it was last year.

my pants are sticking to my thighs. so i put on morphine's yes and feel a bit sorry for myself. cause why not really?

although my day wasn't that bad. boy and i made an event of our having the same day off.

TO THE ART MUSEUM!

ooh, you better believe i was dragging him from room to room....ooh, look at this one!

i was looking forward to a walk by the riverfront, i do love to see the mud up close. it was awful sorts of warm today though. i dread to think of july.

hmmmm.....

now, his voice is lulling me into security .. it's amazing the places that a song can take you.

i like to remember things and think on things fondly or with regret and generally ponder about why i've ended up here. eh, i'm not sure it matters, but i think i'm going to enjoy the big porches, muggy nights, and stinky bourbon street ... if just for another year.

eventually i'll move on, but today i'm feeling a tendency to give peace a chance. i think if i waged war, this crescent city would win and make next year even hotter.
