i'm a local, I need inspiration, or something

I sit in corner coffee shop.
This is one of the middle times.
you think about what happened before and what will happen next.
You wonder if you really do have something to say, or if your JUST a milkgiver.
JUST.
The black drop- "Here it is, doppio number three!"
Local artist Vince walks by and tells you that he admires your bike by using hand gestures through window.
Local spinstress Kate orders coffee with boyfriend, local acter, and they look all cute. They hold hands across the table while reading local news.
Remember pre-times?
Local guys talking about taking their local bikes to faraway places.
Local esspresso guru Alec walks in and out writing things down.

Yesterday we marched down this road holding doves and dancing to peace drums. And my heart and head where here (locally and faraway in the middle of the east) with the footsteps of many. I ended the night snapping at a woman who was different than me because I was embarressed and weirded out by her make-up. Will I ever be a peacemaker?

Retirement

I think I've found our "retirement" home. I least an idea for when the kids are wondering around on their own. I guess they could live there with us- but I'm sure they would be embarrassed of it when they were in highschool. Better if we wait till they're in their 20's+ so then they'll be like "oh our crazy, cool parents who live in a hole- lets go visit them, or stay there when they're traveling around!"

btw...I think exclamation points should be put inside the quotation marks. I'm always told I'm wrong to do that but it just makes more since. The exclamation is part of the statement, the quote, right? (I feel this way about question marks too.).(and periods.)

In other news, because we said we'd never forget:
Report: Hunt For Bin Laden Gone Stone Cold
As the nation marks the anniversary of 9/11, the Washington Post reports the hunt for Osama Bin Laden has gone stone cold. The newspaper says the U.S. government hasn’t received a credible lead on his whereabouts in more than two years. In March 2002, President Bush decided to pull out most of the troops leading the hunt for bin Laden in Afghanistan to prepare for war in Iraq. The Bush administration still has no one official in charge of the overall hunt for bin Laden. Pakistan has reportedly all but stopped looking for him.
