The family's out of town, I've got some people coming over for dinner, and there's a part of me that feels a little nervy even though there's no reason to. Fits of extreme introversion always seem to come at such inconvenient times.

escapism
Ended up going to the movie theater with a couple homies last night to watch things blow up and see Fair Clevelandia laid waste by demigods. My sister laughs at me, because I never go to movies and hardly watch any but it was a good giant piece of explosive fluff and pleasantly undark, and we sat through innumerable previews making snarky comments and seeing the ads for the military inserted between shootemup summer blockbusters makes me realize how messed up we are as a country and I drive home more tired than I thought I'd be, trying to figure out the tangle in my brain, why it seems like everything seems to dead end so quickly..

dmf,
Lies, damned lies, and statistics, or rather, see the comments below (Rob was one of my regular readers, Angie does rustwire.com and follows this stuff pretty well...)
Most of the development comes in the form of tax breaks to wealthy developers at the expense of our already dismal school system. Every ten years, the same thing over and over again! And once the people my age have kids, they bolt for the burbs.
ReplyDeleteha i knew under the fancy new raiment that the rusty-valved heart of clevelandlove was still beating
DeleteIt is! I just was tired of being pigeonholed into regional bloggerdom!
