Perkins
It is our cafe, where we are starving artists and tortured youths. It is our 50’s diner, where we crowd, six girls to a booth, and giggle as the quarterback of the football team struts in. It is our graveyard, where we bury high school memories and mourn lost friends (lost not to death, but to life). It is our sketchpad, our journal, for weekend plans and life goals. And it is our comforting therapist, where we may speak freely, without fear, and feel the comforting hand of a friend on our shoulder. It is our home away from home, our surrogate parent, and the only place we would ever dream of going for pie.
