“ California is so sunny I can’t even hide my flaws from myself. Everything here is a reflective surface, even dirt, even fire, even skin. […]
California is so sure I’m leaving soon I feel compelled to stay forever just to prove it wrong. I want to be 100 years old standing in the center of the state capital saying “See motherfucker, I didn’t leave! You were wrong!” Just so I can beat California at anything just once. I wish California played Scrabble, I’m good at that.
California wants me to put avocado on everything.
