Household Names - "Famous (For Losing You)"

I am the South Side G'ma. If you live in Billings, Montana you understand. Like every other reasonably-sized city, an address in a certain part of town comes with the baggage of not measuring up to say, a Northsider. I love my neighborhood, faults and all. In fact, I moved here because it is the most active and progressive area of Billings. Several years later my little grandson came to live with me. In hindsight I would have to say that if I could have afforded a house in another neighborhood I may have chosen differently for Casey's sake. But he has lots of kids to play with (and lots of kids he isn't allowed to play with) and he doesn't attend school down here so other than growing up with the stigma of growing up here, he has a pretty good life. I write about my life, my neighbors, my neighborhood, work, life as a community activist and participant in Billings.
