It was dark. It was moody. It was in a "bad part of town".
The funny thing is that when I went there I never drank coffee. I think I drank tea a few times. I wasn't into the whole hot caffinated drink phase yet.
But it was cool to hang out and people watch. EMO people before "EMO" was a thing. Druggies. Preps. Then us. I have no idea what we were. My friend was super smart, beautiful, blonde, and exploring. Me, not so much.
I remember on one occassion talking to these guys, there must have been like 4 of them, and then going to their house boat. My friend ended up making out with one of them under a blanket. I'm pretty sure there was weed but I'm pretty sure I didn't smoke it. I'm pretty sure I'm lucky we didn't get raped, murdered and thrown into the river.
Definitely the young and dumb days.Pin It

Sorry, I can't relate. Coffee houses were known as Truck Stops and Emos were just freaks when I grew up. Apparently, we have a huge cultural difference. (because I refuse to say age difference)
oh my...I know what you are talking about! I love to people watch though! People do some very entertaining things! ;)
The things we did that we would kill our kids if they did . . .!
I just had a conversation at work on friday about the dumb things we did as teenagers or in college that make us cringe now for their utter stupidity... ahh, the good old days...
Love your site!
