I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

Ha. Half my friendslist is high today.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

NC (along with a few other southern states) has had the fastest-growing latino population in the country (not the largest overall) for about a generation now. It's been fascinating to see in action: when I moved here, new immigrants were just starting to settle permanently after an earlier generation had primarily worked migrant jobs; now the population has become much more city-based, whole-family-based (i.e. no longer just single workers), having kids, parents naturalizing and starting a ton of businesses. Cultural and attitude shifts on the part of both the previous population and the immigrants. The whole American immigration story, basically. We've been lucky to have less of the ugliness that some states have had (which isn't to say none at all, of course).

Troy is awfully far inland for good shrimp, though.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

This is the first time I've ever heard anything about 4/20 and getting high. I feel very out of it.

my census tract is 78% white. Bah. In NYC my tract was 45% white and more than 3 time as densly populated.

Um. Because I hate the texture of mushrooms, I think it has taken me until now to realize that I'm also allergic to them?

Because books.

I looked at Wyoming, to see where we lived that year, and man. There's just no one out there at all. So weird compared to Philly or New York or L.A. or Chicago.

Manhattan is pretty depressing on the census map. Not surprising really.

Interesting to me that where I lived in Memphis I was part of a 1% minority.

Our wings are not tired.

This was the case with a couple people I work with. I feel like the cool kid of the office!
