- and the city treats me, it treats me to you
- hangin around, downtown by myself
- we all get the slip sometimes
- "hey, carmen, come on, would you go downtown"
- they say it's your birthday
- she likes me for me
- tick tick tick tick on the watch
- and you know i like to day dream
- i put food on the table
- hanging out, down the street
- saw a train set the night on fire
- i'm zipping through the days at lightning speed
- you can't put your arms around a memory
- let my loneliness get blown away
- been that way for all my time
- you've been playing at a game
- we're the renegades in this atomic age
- when I get off of this mountain
- chicken in the bread pin, pickin' out dough
- i feel the chemicals kickin' in
- cause when your mind don't move
- can't ya hear me knockin
- she dreams in color

The Why
Some time ago I started perusing local blogs and media in pursuit of news and happenings in Downtown Raleigh. Being native [for all intents and purposes] and spending all my time in and around Downtown, I was always eager to share things I found with people whom I forcibly decided should care.
Over the months, that very short list of people I emailed when I found something has grown longer and turned into a daily occurance with a variety of tidbits. This is mostly here to archive those daily emails.
If you stumbed upon this site and would like to be added to that list, just shoot me an email and let me know!

The Who
- Ashton
- Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy
- I used to use Blogger when I was living in Raleigh. Then I learned that Blogger essentially owns your content and so when I moved to Cagliari I decided to get on the hosting/wordpress train. You can check me out here now: http://ashtonmae.com/mea-cordia/
