It’s fun reconnecting. After getting over the initial shock at having not seen someone in a while you can’t help but smile as you talk and catch up on the events that transpired in days gone by.

Wow, I think it was a lot saner when kids were killing each other over gang affiliations, but now simply out of social groupings I think we’re beginning to have issues here. I can only expect the hipsters to get involved into the fight soon. They’ll hit you with their 6 dollar coffee’s – not that there’s anything wrong with a six dollar cup of coffee (I love coffee).

And as I go back to my 3 dollar Americano, I leave you with this thought – hug a goth person today, it’ll probably brighten up their lives, who knows, maybe they’ll switch to being Emo instead of Goth.
