On One Short Run
Apr. 23rd, 2008 03:22 pmI've been running every day. Even though my route is essentially the same, I see something different each day. Each step takes me closer to someone else's drama. Today I saw:
All that in less than two thousand steps.
- A broken down city bus, with the driver checking out the engine.
- A man napping on a park bench with a duck waddling underneath.
- People making out in the grass.
- Two Canada geese getting it on mid-swim.
- The first willow leaves of the year.
- A girl shrieking "I'm going to fucking kill myself" while two cops tried to calm her down
All that in less than two thousand steps.
