Today M and I went to Georgetown for Falafel, more exciting adventures in Washington DC with forty-something friends from their university days.

• A little girl with a sequined backpack and pinstripe pants dancing
• A woman with big snowflake like costume jewelry stones on her knit ski cap
• A 20-something lanky young man with crisp jeans rolled above the ankle, extra tight
• a young boy in the back of a crowded bus while his mother had other children and a baby in the front
• A young couple holding hands, both of Asian heritage with baggy black pants and colorful hair. She wore thin but enormous gold hoop earrings. Emo, maybe?
• A lot of people with very similar winter coats
• Most people absorbed in their phones
• construction
• Live music (Music on the way into Georgetown DC)
• Bell bottom sweatpants
• An obese woman in crocks with her feet on the seat in front of her
• A hauntingly beautiful woman with a life’s worth of luggage surrounding her, looking a tad scared, taking pamphlets with maps from the info display
• A young white woman with a canvas bag and a yoga mat
• A couple hugging sadly outside a hotel on the edge of a flower garden pretty much standing on the “Keep off the Grass” sign
