It occurred to me when my phone pitched an "I'm out of space" hissy fit that I haven't updated in a month. Here's a lengthy round up, mostly me because I guess I delete my incoming texts way more often than my outgoing.

A: I wish I had a videocamera right now. Bunch of guys in hard hats doing warm-up stretches in a circle like an aerobics class. Leg lifts, arm circles.
A: Written on the stall door: "Clean up your pee if you go on da toilet seat." Below it in different writing/color marker: "preach."

A: There are a bunch of what look like overturned trash cans on Michigan, presumably for a new art installation or the parade. People are just putting their trash on top of them. :)
Z: That really does look like an art project. Or like a Starbucks for the homeless. If they could put a candle or something in each of those plastic cups, that would look amazing for a parade. At least until the fire started.

Z: Never ever ask anyone over 60 what kind of humidifier they want. Never.
A: Never ask, just automatically give them the one shaped like a penguin.
Z: Believe me, I tried.
Z: Believe me, I tried.
A: Then you say, "I'm sorry, if you don't want the penguin then I can't help you."
A: Rider: how far is Elston? Bus driver: About 2 days walk.

A: There's a possibly homeless old guy who smells like farts on my bus. Young gay guy whips out a vial of cologne to dab under his nose. Winning.
