[grendelxmonster]

sometimes i am sitting in a diner at 3rds and 23rd studying for an art history test
and all these cabs come driving by like batzouttahell
and i get really excited and happy
because i remember i am in new york!
and i think about how i never wanted to come here
and then i did
and im so happy here
.
