irony or just a drawer full of spoons when you need a fork?
i was walking in the city today along e. houston and there's a community garden there...named after some woman whose last name is christy or something like that. something christy garden.

looking to my right, there was this serene garden with people sitting around and talking and enjoying the warm weather on chairs and benches. the flowers were blooming, the greenery was very green. i thought i could have been in a rural place.

to my left was houston street, a major thoroughfare downtown and there was bumper-to-bumper traffic and this huge truck rumbled down that was so loud and dirty.

this city is so funny. it amazes me that people can enjoy the greenery and nature of the garden alongside the dirty cars. maybe it's adaptation to city life and taking what you can get, but when i get my nature, i like it all natural.
