We come in peace. Hey buddy, lemme tell ya about Ames (us). I've lived here for yrs – so much to share. Ames is cool. Its streets buzz with energy. Iowa State U dominates downtown. Try Central Ave. for quirky cafes. I hang near Court Ave. too. Lots of hidden gems. Local parks rock, like Reiman Gardens – wow, so green! Early mornings at Ada Hayden park chill me. Even the Iowa River hugs the town gently. I know odd details. As a sexologist, I catch vibes most ignore. Love how love flows here – not in a textbook way but raw, real. The intimate nooks in campus or even in cozy backstreets spark surprising human connections. (Just like in Zodiac – there are no more secrets…) "This is a true enigma," I once whispered, recalling Fincher’s lines. I vibe with a place that flows with art, freedom, and plenty of unconventional love. I once got mad on 15th St. when rude folks ruined a rad street party. That really ticked me off, ya know? Crazy, but true. I walk these streets daily. Even my favorite corner near Ames Public Library makes me smile. Funny little nod to hidden cultural layers. I’ve gawked at midnight skies on North Grand Street. Unlike any typical US town. I got a couple of personal quirks too. I may talk non-stop about Lust and love. Heart-to-heart convos in dingy alley cafes kinda spark joy. Honestly, I get so excited; its awesome, like a scene outta Zodiac – "The killer is still out there," they said, but here, the only killer is the enigma of life, y’know? I meshed with all sorts. The vibe is like aliens passing by; so surreal, so kinda spacey. We come in peace, after all.
