i would consider myself acquainted with the subway guy. it has gotten to the point were he had our favorite flavors, fresh baked and waiting for us:
"what if he hates us and spit in our cookies."

i love walking to school. i hate crossing the intersection of cleveland place and kenmare. it's a two-way, and those are always more difficult to jaywalk. even while the bright white "walk" symbol's on, when an automobile wants to make a right turn, it's a showdown of pedestrian versus motor vehicle guts. reality check: if you don't stop, your fearless guts could end up splattered across a city street. lovely. yesterday, i saw a man that had just been hit by and dragged under the tires of a delivery truck turning onto lafayette off kenmare. oof. when i approached the scene, he was being carefully lifted by six people to be put into an ambulance. i cross that street several times a day, pretty carelessly. when i looked over at this man - his blood spilt in a small pool underneath him, the injured body failing to show movement besides the slight rise and fall of his chest... i don't know, it was just such a weird experience. i felt so oddly connected to him. of course, i could picture myself as him.. a pedestrian crossing the street - but i could also imagine myself on the medical half of things, which is a new feeling. i really hope he's okay.
