HoseLu told me the other day she has enough ghosts vying for her time to keep us both company. She wants to hook me up with one. Thinks we make a good match. I suppose I could use the distraction. Meeting someone new might help me forget about my hobby. That'd be a welcome relief. I'm running out of chalk and sidewalk. The old passion is more like paranoia now.

"Who's following behind me with a hose and scrub brush?"

Lu's friends are an angry, confused bunch, though. That sort of energy is no good for my heart murmur. Bad for my skin, too. I really do need to be around sparkly personalities. The eyebrow-furrowing, pouty-lipped brooders Lu attracts get old real quick. They make me want to trade in my chalk for spray cans.
