Interesting day

This has been a kind of interesting day. I was conducting site visits to project areas I’m work on. This means I’m basically driving over a very large portion of the city. As I’m driving along I notice things abandoned and laying around, like shoes, shirts, pants, a hat. And it gets to wondering…. are there people out there walking around naked? Why would people simply abandon a perfectly good pair of shoes or pants?

Also while I was out, I had to make a restroom stop. I typically choose fast food restaurants for these stops since they usually keep their facilities clean and well stocked. I had the miss fortune of being in the stall minding my own business, when the restroom was invaded by a horde of teen aged girls in the middle of a drama meltdown. Ohmygawd! They were so loud and high pitched I thought my filling would fall out and the paint would peal off the walls. I just sat there, through the ex-boyfriend in the dining room/ oh no she didn’t fest, thinking if I could just figure out how to use all that energy for good!

When I got back to my desk I look up and see a huge black cloud boiling up from between the building about 6 blocks over. It’s clear something is burning. No sooner then it start, it was gone. Just one gigantic billowing black cloud. I jumped onto the local news station’s websites, but nothing. I guess I’ll have to wait to find out what it was. Not too long before the cloud appeared there had been a news helicopter circling the area. Maybe they missed it. Who knows? Obviously not the news station or they would have kept their helicopter in the air for filming.

Like a said a kind of interesting day and it’s not over yet.
