The El 6/24/09

Girl in excessively short plaid skirt with cat ear head band. Guy in pimped out pin striped suit with fedora carrying the metal leash attached to the girl and a black leather flogger. On a Wednesday people!

The El 2/3/09

Twenty-something black male (clearly not homeless as he was dressed pretty nicely) with a small vacuum cleaner and a Pokemon lunch box worn messenger bag style around his body.

The El 10/30/08

I don't get to share enough about all the funny, quirky things I see in the city. Many of these revolve around my trips to work on the "El" or subway. It's an ironic name because the part that I take is very much under ground and not elevated, but parts of it are, hence the name. Sometime, I'll give you some great back stories, but here's what I saw this morning, the hysterical and the heartbreaking. 

Guy in black velvet textured suit and red-sequined shirt with beat up black sneakers.

Homeless guy sleeping on the stairs. Pretty normal. Except for the small child, probably 6 or 7, sleeping carefully tucked under his legs.

In other news, I've moved, just down the street, and they were filming a movie on my street the other night.
