::go fly a kite!::

there were some interesting sights today at lunchtime. after eating my sandwich in my car, i was driving through several interconnecting parking lots on my way to rite aid for some mint chip ice cream. approaching big lots, i happened upon this scene: a woman, in her 40's, flying a kite. it is cold and windy. her back is to me and a small white dog is sitting at her feet, watching her. i slowly make my way around her, trying not to startle either of them. the dog is on a leash, but the woman doesn't have it tethered to anything. passing her, the kite nosedives into the pavement next to me. i try not to run it over. i think i am successul.

there is a park not half a mile away. but she's flying a kite in the middle of a parking lot. yeah. humm.

and, actually, this was the only interesting sight. sorry to disappoint ya.
