a few of my favorite things

things i love about chicago:

• foamy soap ... in most public restrooms. it's foamy, it's fun, i feel like a kid in a bathtub with rubber toys...when cleaning yourself was still playtime.
• the lake...walking by it, driving by it, seeing from the 12th floor of the michigan building. it has a tropical aqua color and an arctic layer of ice. it is always, at all times of day, night and season magnificent.
• the L ... above the city, weaving through apartment buildings, looking down on starbucks and traffic lights, i feel like a fisher price toy in a lego village.
