weird things i saw on my walk to work this morning
i walk about 6 blocks from the bus stop at 8th and Folsom to work every morning. it's not the greatest neighborhood, but i do walk by a police and sheriff station, so i feel pretty ok about it. i do see weird things though. i had my camera with me and really should have taken photos.
1. a slice of bacon in the middle of the sidewalk on 7th. a whole, clean(ish) slice of bacon. no other food around it, like toast or some eggs or even a stray hash brown or remnants of a cheeseburger.
2. a fake louis vuitton suitcase filled with nothing but newspapers and old mustard bottles, sitting next to a fire hydrant.
3. several limousines in the police impound tow yard (maybe this isn't weird, but for some reason i thought it was strange. it would suck to be a passenger of a limo that got repo'ed in the middle of say, wine tasting or your bachelorette party.)
last, but really, the pisser of the whole thing, was fat fred in red. fred was running a little behind today. i usually see him at around 7th and bryant and today, he was just crossing the street at townsend. i was disappointed to not only see that he was wearing little black running shorts, but a SHIRT. it was red. so that was ok. but he was late and wearing a shirt.
work is hosting a party for KFOG live from the archives 14 tonight and i get to go (only 75 employees got tickets!). i'm so excited. robin is coming! i get to show him where i work. i can't wait till he gets here.
it's sort of nice because now i can work until 6:30pm. i've actually made some headway on my desk today. it's been a rough couple of weeks, but hopefully things are starting to calm down. one thing is for sure, we keep selling product - new orders get dumped on my lap every day. job security is a good, good thing.
till next time.
xoxo.
