Things I miss
Some things I miss:
- Having a diner a block away that serves breakfast until 4am
- A nearby playground where there’s always a good game of basketball
- Meeting my friends early at school to play Salugi in the park
- Running to the pizza place near my elementary school, for lunch, where you’d get a slice and a soda for $1
- The undeniable sense life is unimaginably long
- The freak show of White Castle on Northern Blvd and Bell, at 2am on a Friday
- The convenience store that sold us 15 year olds all the beer we wanted
- Talking to close friends for hours without an excuse for why
- Playing football in the streets
- Crusing Franny Lew, just to make fun of other people who cruised Franny Lew
- The ethereal sense of abundant undivided time
- Watching summer thunderstorms at dusk, raging on the horizon, above the street on my parents porch
