Things We Forget

  • Forgiveness

    My favorite place is the labyrinth path behind the cathedral. I do not attend mass – the Catholic Church has committed unforgivable atrocities – there’s a reason they promote forgiveness.

  • Quirky

    I love the quirky antique mall with unexplainable items.

  • Art

    My favorite place is the bridge tunnel covered in graffiti art. I love seeing the marks of unbound human creativity.

  • Skate Park

    I go to the skate park to watch fearless teenagers attempt to rewrite the physical laws of the universe.

  • Vibe

    The tiny houseplant shop—I rarely buy, I mostly vibe.

  • Mexican Food Truck

    My favorite place is the neighborhood Mexican food truck. I sometimes stop there for dinner if I’m walking home from the bar. My favorite thing to get is the quesadilla.

  • Ferns

    I love the botanical garden’s fern room. It reminds me of the Jurassic Park movies.

  • Jars

    The little candy shop with jars that look like they belong in a fantasy novel.

  • Chaos

    I always end up at the bookstore café’s second floor. It is composed of cozy chaos.

  • Arcade Bar

    My favorite place is the arcade bar. Adults deserve a place where they sell drinks and tokens.
