One of my favorite things (completely selfish and makes me feel better about myself) is walking home in bumper-to-bumper traffic.
All those suckers get to sit in their stuffy cars while I prance around their stuck-in-traffic suburban booties. Ha ha ha. *Hey look at me, all walking outside in the fresh air, right by the baby bunnies and birdies. What's that? Awwwww, you have to sit in your car for an hour before getting home to a house that's too big for screaming kids and a list of more things to do? Oops, can't talk now, gotta go feed the squirrels* Sometimes I like to look at the drivers and smile. I wonder if they know I'm silently glowing in my little victory?
I am very evil. I'm also very fortunate to be afforded this opportunity.
It's also to my benefit to walk downtown for an hour everyday because the farmer's market is back on for the season! That shiz is wiggedy whack. On the walk home tonight the money in my back pocket was nearly sprouting legs and running full speed at the flower vendors before I got the chance to do it myself. Tulips have GOT to be the most gorgeous spring flower in the history of, er, spring flower. s. We are talking cheap-cheap and the most gorgeous art there is happily on display in my zen room. Ahhhh... nature's art. I love the swooping thing they do. There must be a mathetmatical perfection in that arch cuz it makes me so happy I could just kiss, um, something. I could kiss something.

Yes, I took pictures of my tulips. Hey, that's a cute name for a kitten: Tulip. Or 'Tulippe' if the cat is french.
Stay focused Margaret.
Back to tulips, walking home in 72 degree weather... la la la. *singing melodically* Spriiiinnnnnnng is in the aaaair...

Another evil thing that I like to do is walk in front of their cars while they are waiting to cross an intersection at a light but traffic is too backed up to do so. Nothing better than me crossing while they wait. Of course sitting at a bar (Kierans) and having a pint while watching them fight traffic is fun too.
