Cobb Salad

This place makes the best Cobb salad.I'm not sure if the person behind the counter is a man or a woman. I wish they wore name tags. With my luck, his/her name is Leslie, anyhow.

I wait for the bus on this corner every work day. It's bleak and depressing. I've seen lots of ugliness here: fights, public drunkenness, people vomiting, public drug use by young people with children. On the flip side, it's also just a few hundred yards from beautiful Ocean Beach, and there are often surfers and nice old ladies.

Dissonance

So, this is a thing for buskers, these days. Play some nice, prerecorded music over a loudspeaker and once in a while, play a few notes on an instrument. The notes may or may not have anything to do with the music. You may or may not know how to actually play said instrument. This is a thing.

Work

One thing I love about cities is that one gets to see people doing all sorts of work. What constitutes "work" for me is so different than it is for other people. Most of my "work" involves writing and thinking. These guys break their backs for the rest of us. Thank God for them.

Still in Hollywood

We were in Hollywood this afternoon, so I took a minor detour home so I could :60 the Hollywood Sign.

Walking in the Snow

I was following my husband and kid in the snow as we walked to the car in the alley. We live in Chicago, and it had snowed earlier in the day.

Uh-Oh

My daughter just woke up from a very long nap, and she was in a pretty good mood. She started making this face that looks a lot like a toothless old man this week, and "Uh-oh" is the only thing she says on request. It's new.
