The Face of Elmwood

I took a lovely stroll through my old neighborhood of Elmwood Strip now referred to as "Elmwood Village". The weather was wonderful, the sunshine was brilliant and my spirits were on high.
Several things along my stroll struck me as odd.
Many of the long familiar shops were gone. Outta there.
One of the shops required advanced screening prior to patrons entering their establishment. Yes, I had to be buzzed into a WNY semi haute couture-trendy shop. What the hell?
I spoke with another shop owner who was informing her customers...

Chammycakes had to take a stroll down the street before some place close

peace out mofuckas,
T-dong

comings or goings?
Category: choices

For the last two years during this particular season, I am drawn to some sort of impasse'.
I cannot decide whether to stay or go?
I am not ready to move to Atlanta with the rest of my family.
Yeah, I no longer have blood family in Buffalo : (
Just my family of friends : ) !
I am pressed on a weekly basis by my family in Atlanta to relocate there.
I can't seem to give them a good enough reason as to why not.
I don't really want to operate on "I didn't have a good enough reason not too, so I jumped".
Truthfully, there isn't much anchoring me to the floor of the Potomac.
It's just what I do.

who the hells knows anyway. i think you should just make sure you can be where you feel alright.

jason - 10/05/06 12:31
Oh SouthernYankee I think you should be wherever you think you would be happiest. There are good and bad things about every place. Be and do what will make you a happy camper, you know?

paul - 10/05/06 01:19
You could always move here?

robin - 10/04/06 22:39
come on down here. we'll have some fun.
