When the fat march was on TV I was inspired to walk. We walked out of our apartment complex and about a block down and around. I really would like to explore some more. One time my sister-in-law and I ended up walking three miles, and found a river that runs over a road in a neighborhood. It was very cool. We had no idea where we were and had to look it up on the internet to find it. It was pretty cool, and I’ll never forget the feeling I got while exploring.

- never park in the parking lot
- don’t even think about using a cart.
- don’t ever go on a weekend, a monday, or the day after a long weekend (I went yesterday, the day after Labor Day, at 5:30. Ugh)
- Mornings are best.
- Stay calm.

this one is downtown, and i’ve avoided it mainly for the traffic. but today i had to go to city college to register for my spanish class and had to walk right through it.
what a pleasant surprise. it’s much bigger than the tuesday market, with more food venders, and there was jazz music in the park, too.
some things i got today: a baggie of raw, mixed nuts, an asian pear, 2 loaves of vital vittles bread, and a carton of goat yogurt.
i ran out of money (whew! i only had $12 on me) before i could buy blue bottle coffee, handmade tortilla chips and salsa, organic peaches and meat. i still have veggies from tuesday’s market, so i didn’t need any.
some other interesting vendors: a worm farm, several booths promoting composting and organic gardening, a 9/11 conspiracy display, a table with rocks, and a saurkraut maker.

this place is 2 blocks from my house. on the way home from swim practice this morning, i stopped in for a coffee, said hello to zazu and sauntered back to the house. hands down, the best coffee shop in the world, at least this slice of the world.

also halfway between home and work. this one has fantastic sandwiches, but v. expensive, $9.50 for a BLT. a bit of a splurge, might be a nice spot for a latte and dessert.

wonderful local market. huge mexican papayas, tiny colombian bananas, yummy real tortilla chips, and organic chicken from the butcher counter.
i like the feeling that i am in a market somewhere in latin america…

i like the one on tuesday afternoons.
Sir Aaron is!
I explore the heel out of my hood like Cortez on liquid cocaine. Only without the raping, robbing and pillaging. Or well without taking any land really. So maybe Cortez is the wrong person to use in the analogy. How about Bullwinkle?
I explore the hell out of mu hood like Bullwinkle on liquid booze! Boo-ya!
“I’m not the type of person who likes to waste my time
And when I’m on the mic – I just say my rhymes
Because I’m out on bail – the check is in the mail
They can sentence me to life – but I won’t go to jail
I’m cool calm collected – from class I was ejected
Just me, Mike D., and M.C.A. – we’re rarely disrespected
I got all the time that I need to kill
What’s the time? – it’s time to get ill”
