BRICK BUILDINGS- BENTON PARK WEST.
For my sister Efficient, just to make her homesick. She lives in Tampa and we recently talked about my moving there.
Brick homes, I asked.
Cinder blocks, she said.
Not understanding, I repeated: Hey, are there any brick homes down there!?
Cinder block, she repeated.
The horrror!
Let's get this straight, Effy. If you're not visiting me in October like you said you would, I'm staying put. Don't forget to buy The Elements of Style, yo.
I love you little girl.
