It's a blast being up here.""I don't really like to be in high places," said Alecto as he filmed her, the camera lens reflecting the entire playground, which was partially secluded by tall trees that cast otherworldly shadows dancing across the ground."If you don't like being in high places, then why'd you take so many drugs in the seventies?"

So, when my mom and dad took me here for my tenth birthday, it was a really big deal. They'd saved up for two months to take me to the photography store and they bought me a Kodak Instamatic film camera… I really miss those days, because we were still a real family back then… this mall doesn't even have a film photography store anymore, just a cell phone and digital camera store, it's depressing… book-quotepastshoppingbirthday
