Getting Away With It

I'm David. During the day I work in tech. I go out and visit bookstores on the weekends.

Went out. It has mostly stopped raining, but the wind is still gusty.

Nothing was open except Mike’s Diner, living up to the 24 Hours Open sign. I walked down to the East River, which was sitting at the very top of the concrete river wall. Another foot, and it’d be spilling over.

As I was walking back home, a power line explode across the street from me. That knocked the adventuresome sense right out of me.

As I type this, I can hear distant banging noises.
