Modern ghost town

Travelling through texas....the back half is pretty bare. Tiny lil towns dotting the route about half a gas tank apart. But one of the things that facinates me are the ghost towns. The soothing peaceful quiet as mother nature reclaims the structures lost to the past in her very own display of natural art. Older architecture styles decaying and crumbling under inquisitive flora, seasoned signs with oldtimey names fading, peeling, and cracking till recognition is soon past. But what i saw driving through texas? A modern ghost town. Which instead of eerie it just felt wrong. Its hard to describe but here goes.

Google maps was guiding me to a Subway. But when i got there i realised it wasnt open.....it was empty. Everything not bolted down had been removed. A glance around made me realise, snap outta my long drive autopilot, im the only thing moving in sight or "feel". Ive never seen this before...an emptied town. I nudged the door open. Instead of the usual creak and shifting on rotten hinges, the door sways smoothly. My "hello" isnt greeted by skiddish mice or a bird, but instead absorbed into the too silent wood and dust. Stores i recognised felt even more empty and deafeningly silent than it was simply because the contrast of how busy and noisy ive always known them. I left much sooner than i would a normal ghost town. Instead of feeling like im admiring a scenic art gallery, the pit of my stomach was telling me not to be the ill-fated pre-opening credits guy and nope tf outta there

Late night highway

So. I was driving home on leave. This took me through the mountain highway on the border of california and arizona. Its late af so theres nearly no cars on the road. Im driving and a comes up and i remember im in the left lane so i pull aside....and that car does too. After a bit of posturing i realise hes toying with me so i open the throttle up a bit. Next thing ya know we are hurdling down the winding highway going over 120. Weaving accross eachother on the turns having a blast. Then the road straightens out and i glance over at the other car....light from a computer screen shows an older gent laughing his ass off.....then we pass under a light and i see his door is white and he has a lightrack. Next light we pass and his door definitely says sheriff. "Oh fuck thats a cop" moment like none other, i laid off the throttle and reflected on my life choices as i hoped he didnt flash them lights

Tinder adventure

So. A few months ago i joined tinder. Not for hookups, more for adventure. Sometimes i meet and appriciate the company a unique individual, sometimes i get more adventure than i bargained for😂

This particular girl seemed more leaning towards wanting to hookup so i put off meeting her until we get to actually know eachother. Finally i agreed to meet her. As fortune would have it i meet her an hour before she has a performance. Her and two friends are dressed identical, white shirts, black skirts and fishnets. Around theres people in ridiculous costumes providing no context to what the performance is. Im loving it, chatting the three girls about eachother, me and my damn clueless self completely forgets to ask anything about the play.....like you know, at *least* the title. Even one of the performers, a tall guy decked out in lingerie introduced himself and shook my hand. Afterwards i was wondering why he shook my hand so long, felt like i wasnt in on the joke. Then it hit me. He was tryna see if him in lingerie would make me weird me out and was wondering why the i didnt even bat an eye.

The performance draws close and the gal is like attached to me and her two friends seem to enjoy my company (later im told one was jealous af of her friend and the other had a boyfriend which makes the next part a touch awkward) so they convince me to watch the show. Me being professionally clueless, i agreed to without even asking the title. They were all stoked and insisted i sat in the front row which seemed like it was more than to just have a good view of the show...

Show starts and introduction was me getting dragged up onto the stage by the three gals, sat in a chair and all three taking turns doing a tease while the narrator gave a synopsis on the show. None of which i heard because the gals doing lapdances and stuff on me, in front of an entire audience and the one girls boyfriend had my mind preoccupied.

Rest of the show was hilarious, but without context it was sporatic af and im about as clueless as a stoner tryna change channels on the mircowave

Remember to pause and enjoy the moment

You know those guys that rev their pretty cars so everyone has to hear it? They treat every stoplight like a drag strip? You ever kinda wished theyd catch some poetic justice? Welp. I was driving around on post, its wet from rain. I came to a stoplight with a truck next to me. An engine snarls and some sporty purple nissan convertable tries to peel out on a turn. Completely spins out and comes to a stop in our lane. Then tries to peel whip into the right direction like he meant to do that. Our light turns green i look to the truck and we burst into laughter and wordlessly agree to kick back at watch this show. We wind up waiting till the next light comes around because he came to a rest straight across the road and had to austin powers that shit outta there back and forth, back and forth

First impressions

They are certain things you wanna avoid when youre breaking the ice with a gal. It should go without say that telling a girl the day she was conceived is one of them......but thats EXACTLY what i managed to do today. We were chatting, conversation turned to zodiac signs and how shes a scorpio, her younger sister is a scorpio and her dad is a scorpio, but the sisters birthdays were a day apart and the dads was within a week. Reflexively i figure out the most likely explaination and tell her. "Thats not so uncommon, it is 9 months after valentines day" then i watched her face as she processed that meant she was likely the product of her parents Valentine's day romance. Which was followed by disgust as she wasnt fond of that running through her head and then anger as she blamed me for scarring her for life. (I turned it around, but we are talking about my failures here😂)

Why I randomly joimed tumblr.

So. I tend to tell stories to my friends of what i get myself into, and at one point my one of them demanded i start a tumblr page so others could get in on this.
