Some of West Baltimore is very depressing, most of the houses boarded up. People black and white walk around the empty streets, and it feels very surreal. Sometimes people sit on the stoop and watch me go by.
It's good to see her again. We tear up weeds. Some of her old friends are getting married. It's probably a bad thing. I tell her it won't last, as if that would make it better. She's not even on speaking terms with Scott.
I leave at 3:30, trying to make it out of town before rush hour. It's an hour back to Harvard Street, even with a stop to buy two and a quarter gallons of gas at just under two dollars a gallon but I don't care because it comes out to four and a half bucks exactly. I pay with my debit card so I can get back on the road as quickly as possible.
I love it, the open road. Going places.
