i wish i lived in a slum with soft floors and leaning doors.
i guess that's where interests diverge and run away.
i like the pictures of the buildings, and find them to be "pretty," in fact. dull, pastelly colors - soft pinkish brick and peeling white paint, rotting gray wood, esp rust corroding the industrial pale green metal paint that was apparently rather cheap 50-70 years ago. but i like way decay looks. i definitely find it preferable to cream stuccoed and raked-rocked desert suburbs.
i'm about to go to the bookstore to physically buy frankenstein, and dracula. it seems so strange to me. shouldn't they be part of the general western consciousness, now? i shouldn't have to read them, i should simply be asked to "remember" them.
