come as you are
its been over a decade since i lived in chico…but spring’s arrival always takes me back there. to bear hole with a tall-boy in hand. dozens and dozens of first year college students all showing each other what they’ve got. silver dollar speedway on friday nights. dirt flying up from the track, into the air, and on to the foam of my beer. end up at duffy’s for sure…but having a drink at just about every bar in that four block radius beforehand. after last call…wander over to 1 Mile to go skinny dipping with whoever else was still standing at the end of the night. pitch black darkness. chuckles of other drunken naked people before they dive into the water.
all of those things, for sure. and…most recently…mona’s house.
