ten years ago, i spent my last night at 394 sinclair --- an absolutely wonderful place to live for, lo, those 28 years, which included three excellent relationships with people i still love a whole lot --- and a it was a lot more than that --- not the least of which was making a semi-silk purse out of a sow's ear --- with angela's help on the roof and all over, and a lot of other help besides --- ivory and joyce, adding local color; jeremy and heroin freaking us all out; rob, steroids, and epilepsy, freaking us all out; roger being roger; carol, ditto; cmcc ditto twice --- bob, willis, ida clair, sinclair are still there so to speak ---
and ten years later, i gotta say that i have had not regrets --- sometimes i try to think about what it might have been like if i had stayed on sinclair, and i can't -- midtown was as "urban" as you can get in atlanner --- and it's only got better over the last ten years --- 10 or 12 construction cranes within the viewshed today --- a second generation of condo/apt towers in midtown --- but metropolis was the first
