Walking Backwards

Four years and ten months ago I bought my first house. At the time it sounded like a good idea: closer to my favorite hangout, not wasting money on rent and the whole building equity/good investment deal. I have now built negative equity and my corner bar closed. Sure, I can crank my two new subwoofers (yes, I bought a second one) as loud as I want but I'm kind of stranded without a place to go, except for my one friend who lives in the same apartment building that I moved out of almost five years ago. But here's the kicker: instead of pissing and moaning about the walk and people not shoveling their sidewalks, now I'm doing it with 16 cans of beer in my vinyl cooler. How times have changed.
