Aroma

With all the rain that's fallen, there's new scents no matter where you go.

In my front yard, it's the smell of dry earth sucking up the water, and plants growing as fast as they can with the rain.

On the running path it's a clean scent of vegetation.

Around the trails in the park, it's the smell of all the piss and shit from the hobos and drug addicts all getting re-hydrated at once.

Seriously folks, I cannot for one moment think of why anyone would ever want to live in this city of their own choice.  I really can't.  What's so desirable here?  The pollution?  The greedy, selfish assholes who populate the place?  The illegal aliens?  The earthquakes?
