First Thursday

Here's where I'm gonna be tonite.
As I googled First Thursdays I realized that a lot of organizations and groups and places have special gatherings on the first Thursday of the month.
This is an especially wicked time here in Austin because its one of the few places where you can walk around on the street and see your friends and neighbors face to face. The rest of the time people seem to be trapped in their plastic and glass bubbles.
During August you just don't see a lot of pedestrians.
They melted.
I miss that about SF, not the temprate climate although I miss that too, I miss that whole actually seeing the proletariat face to face thing.
Fucked up infrastructure I tell ya.
