Sunny Marin..The temperature today was in the 70's. I worked at a house in Mill Valley...a place that I find completely weird. I don't know if it's all the trees or what. Maybe the orderliness and all the white people. the Lexus' and Beamers And Jags everywhere. The sense of entitlement. The perfection. the streets that wind around the hills and lead you up and up deep into territory that is forbidden to outsiders, where the only place to turn around is a driveway.

this place used to be friendlier. There was a more relaxed attitude then, not the striving that pervades the place now.
