I'm calling this the raccoon house, though I don't remember if that's entirely accurate. Just about all of the houses I've been in had signs of wildlife, particularly raccoons, but this one had been taken over more thoroughly. I used to have tons of pictures from this house; it was only one country block from my parent’s residence so I would bike there on a regular basis, it was positively gorgeous, and I'm quite sad that I have so little documentation remaining. Torn down last year, I think.
Boy, i can remember going into an abandon house with bill and scoping it out, going upstairs and opening the door. Then as fast as you can say "LOOK OUT" this big mother raccoon chases us down the stairs and out the front door. On our heels the whole way.We are big abandon house fans. That really scared the pants off me. Say, if you ever get a chance to see John Waters GO! That was the best show i've been to in a while. It was his "This filthy world tour"
May I never be complete.
May I never be content.
May I never be perfect.

A blog about nothing in particular; nothing and everything or anything or me.I love: finding pennies on the ground, lightning storms, having dreams about houses, Reepacheep, giggling to myself about something foolish, being at my parents’ house and walking down to the bridge in the middle of the night and laying down in the middle of the road and staring straight up at the stars. Music, music, music, friendly strangers, great sex/cuddles, curry, maps, making faces at myself in the mirror. Smoking, gross stuff like blood and boogers, fight club, taking pictures or fiddling about with cameras, riding subways and busses, being on the radio, special Halloween cookies, people.
I have: sat in crop circles, hopped a train, had no home, gone hitchiking, lived in a trailer, and I've probably eaten your trash.
Gaaaaaahhhhhh so much crusty beauty. WHY do the things I love have to be destroyed?!
