TV

I just watched some of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show."  I saw a picture of a lady with a face that was melting.  I realized about living in the nation's oldest continuing city.  It is a haunting place.  Florida is, too.  My mom also is not from the U.S.  However, when you're there, it's just kinda like not much there.  It's like fixed up with like you just see like the old buildings of like benches in the schools, you know from maybe the 1600s or 1700s or maybe 1800s.  I think they had photos of old people alive who went there.  I did a camp.  I remember seeing like the old Spanish stuff, the things hanging up, the way they wash each cup.  It just seemed normal, kinda clean and tidy but maybe haunting to think of the racism.  I don't think they were pictured as tan tan like South America nor slick.  I don't know what they looked like.  I know rich people did some stuff there, but obviously it's not all over.  I know I toured it a lot, and people who visited think they have a grasp.  3 years.  I never thought of it as a ghost town.  I know some people there, but they don't talk to me, now.  The ghost tour might be cool, but in Key West it just seemed kinda normal.  I don't know, it was about people jumping from a hotel I remember and like mixed people in a grave.  There was a joke about it being bad for tourism, Diamond Dave.  He looked like the dad in My Fair Lady with a top hat.  I remember now seeing the thing about the house on the street with the doll that moved over.  Not sure when it was, but it seemed like around 1900, possibly.  I was with my little girl cousin alone, and she held my hand, though of course it didn't help enough.  That reminds me of New Orleans.  For some reason, I know a lot about that place.
