Merry Christmas, East Side Locos

10:05 pm Christmas

911: this is 911

me: hello, I'm calling to report 6 gunshots fired very near my house. you may have already gotten some calls on it.

911: yes, ma'am. your neighbors have called in, too.

me: ok. thank you. merry christmas.

911: merry christmas

not sure whether those were "happy birthday, jesus" gunshots, or "holmes, you just got all this cool shit, and now you are going to give it to me" gunshots.

the police helicoptors doing flyovers with their high power search lights used to worry me. now i pretend they are all careflite.

holidayze in the hood. how quaint. i must remember to check the alley in the morning and see if the taggers updated the graffiti on our garage to celebrate the season.
