today I went down to Stinky Monkey Tattoo to amke my appointment for a tattoo, then had to go to another shop to see if the drawing for my brothers tattoo was done up yet, in between the two places was my old nieghborhood where I lived from 2nd grade until part way through senior year in high school. For the most part the place remains virtually unchanged, a few new houses and a few renovated houses. The house I grew up in was completely different, but I kew it was the last time I was in the old nieghborhood was visiting the kid that bought my house, which was a freind of my brothers that he went to high school with, he has since moved out. All the other houses around that area were basically untouched. It was the land that time forgot. As i drove around I even saw one of the old neighborhood kids and contemplated stopping but decided it didn't really matter, I haven't talk to more than a few people from the nieghborhood in at least ten years, and figured why now. It might of been interesting but I think I'd rather leave most of it as memories. On a side note, the kid who used to live next door from me for many of the years I lived there, is coming home for Thanksgiving from Seattle, we have been in touch off and on since we met, more on than off, but we have or times of being away from each other. I can't wait to see him again. I got to see him this summer but it was only two days while I was on tour, one day I had to work and he was there to see the show as much as hangout. I've known this kid for over 20 years, there is only one person that isn't family that I see fairly regularly that I'bve known that long, and come to think of it I stopped by and saw him today too. And I'm seeing my freind Heather who I haven't seen in at least 6 months tonight. Seeing old freinds is great. Although keeping in touch is better.
