1. A happy toddler with no shoes on in his mother's lap who smiled and waved at me. He had on a Grover t-shirt, which was appropriate since his name was Graham.
2. A leather-faced man sit on a ledge, pull out his guitar, hit raspy chords and sing with a golden twang.
3. A group of black-clad, neck-tattooed band mates? Bikers? Smoking at a table far enough away for me not to be able to smell the smoke.
4. A school bus pull up to the curb and a multi-ethnic gaggle of obnoxious teenagers disembark. The chaperones (I guess) exited last, chatted about lunch, and as soon as the bus pulled away, the male chaperone remembered something and went after the bus, trying to get the driver's attention in vain.
5. A colleague and my Portuguese instructor (the same person) come over, scare the life out of me by his sudden appearance and proceed to chat about the insanity of teaching classes + preparing for comps + trying to get started on writing a thesis.
6. A girl next to me drop a piece of paper. I picked it up before it blew away. She thanked me.
7. A panhandler rejected by a guy yelling, "I can hear d-mn well good! Why don't you get off the street and go get a job!"
