Seen

Today I saw the following:

1. A seven piece brass band that was incredibly good playing on the streets by school just to try and sell CD's.
2. The same woman I've seen on the bus almost everyday for two weeks.
3. An old woman carrying a bird on her arm through an apartment building where the apartments are $500,000 and up.
4. Possibly the cutest kid I've seen since I moved to Chicago.
5. Someone sleeping on the bus.
6. Two men, dressed like pimps, preaching though a microphone attached to a small boombox.
7. A doorman walking a dog.
8. A 3 ounce vile of balsamic vinaigrette that was 45 dollars.
9. My fantasy football team loose a tie breaker-ties go to the player with more bench points.
10. My Civil Procedure teacher-an older man named Greenberger-discuss oral sex (we were talking about the Jones v. Clinton case).
11. The most unconventionally beautiful girl I've ever seen in real life.
12. A man working the register at Subway trying to teach an obviously recent immigrant to the United States how to say "please" and "thank you" to customers. The man had the pronunciation and timing down pat. The volume was what he struggled with.
13. The River, The Lake, the shoreline, The Sunset, the Sears tower, the Hancock Building, a skyscraper being built out my front door-oh and a forecast for a high of 56 and a low of 43 and windy in a few days. Fall is here.
14. A face from the past on someone from the present.

Lyrics of the Day:

In lieu of lyrics of the day I'm going to suggest some bands. If you're not listening, or haven't heard Chin Up, Chin Up or Wolf Parade you should check them out. They're fucking awesome.
