Surviving Suburbia: #1

I went for a walk today or maybe it was yesterday…I can’t be sure (50 points to the existentialist who can tell me where I nicked the opening from). It was warm but not hot the bank sign read 72°F.  It wasn’t a BOFA, WAMU, CITI or some other four letter word that inflates interest rates just because they can. No, this was 3/5ths Commercial Bank. I suppose in these hard economic times its not financially savvy to run a full 5/5ths bank.

The kindly 3/5th told me it was 72°F as well as to have a nice day and drive carefully. I silently thanked the bank gods for their public service reminder. And much like little red riding hood sans the red hoodie and basket I set to find grandmas house.  Armed with a granola bar, and a brand spanking new compass application for my phone, I boldly stepped where no suburbanite tread before. The STREETS.
