On my run today I noticed a few things that stood out.
- The place where whiskey bottles go to die. About 150, maybe more, whiskey bottles under a tree. I wish I had my camera.
- The ugliest house I have ever seen. It wasn’t dilapidated and there wasn’t anything wrong with it, but it was just the least architecturally attractive house I have ever seen. If I had built that house I would say knock it down. Try again.
- Smells. I smell a lot of things when I run. Normally I don’t much notice what the air smells like, but when I run I notice. Maybe because I’m breathing so much, maybe because I’m crazy bored. Today it was pancakes followed by flowers followed by car exhaust followed by BBQ. Then it hit me. McDonald’s french fries. I was so close to running in there and demanding all their fries and eating until my heart burst from all the greasy goodness.
- A house with a printed notice on their door stating “No Flyers”. So they put up a flyer to tell people not to put up flyers. They live in our neighborhood. We get a few, maybe 2 a month, but not enough to have that ugly thing permanently affixed to our front door.
