Ahhhh...the pleasures of city life.
It's a warm night, so I have the balcony door open tonight for some "fresh" Pittsburgh air. My roommate is in bed, and the TV and stereo are turned off, so it's completely silent in my apartment. Off in the distance, I can hear the occasional sounds of gunfire from some of Pittsburgh's less "hospitable" neighborhoods.
There must be some sort of "gang war" going on lately. I rarely hear any shots, but lately I've been hearing them all night. Pretty soon I'll hear the sirens, and there will probably be a 5-second spot on the news tomorrow afternoon.
What's scary is that all of this is taking place less than ten blocks away. Luckily for me, the mafia has quite an influence in my neighborhood (and it seems to keep street crime down), but it's a bit unnerving to hear shots fired so close to home.
So what are you listening to tonight?
