Crime … up.
Temperatures … up.
Roads … battered.
Paint … peeling.
Streets … darker.
Drunks … drunker.
But …
Palm trees still make me happy. Like this city does. Tawdry. Contorted. Feisty, fetid and ever in-a-mood. If you love it here, all the former annoyances occasionally fade, like the sun over the last busted building. Leaving you with deepening sky and a deepening understanding that some of the best places and the best people are the most flawed.
