Sometimes I am lonely here but then I look around me at all the art or out the window at the trees and feel more settled. Our little, private apartment complex is like a secret neighborhood and we all know each other.
When I have friends over for a visit, which should really be more often, I am reminded of how sweet my place really is. How lucky that I have my own pad in a fantastic city, Oakland, just steps away from fun ad adventure in every direction.
