“Let go of your concerns! Then you will know that I am God. I rule the nations. I rule the earth.” (Psalm 46:10)
When I finally did that then positive things started coming my way more and more. #TrustTheProcess
So many questions, very few answers. An indescribable deep pain and sorrow lingers. A young person has died a horrible, violent death and no one wants to come forward with information. My heart hurts for his family and this community. A community that I lived in for many years as a child and had an opportunity to return and work as the Academy Program Coordinator for the Grant HS Criminal Justice Academy. I count my blessings many times for not only the lives I impacted but the people in this community that helped me to make a positive difference in the lives of my students for so many years working in this community. I will continue hope and pray answers are given to the questions being asked. Why did this happen? How did this happen? Who did this? What did he do to deserve this? {Random Thought 11.20.15}

Heh. This was maybe the most fun one to shoot of 07_07_07 flickr series.
Everyday to and from work I walk through this wonderful european-style plaza in the heart of Chicago's Lincoln Square is a european-style plaza. The plaza's in-laid bricks are often filled with chalk drawings by children.
I brought my own chalk (that I had since I was a kid) and drew on the bricks. It was fun drawing on the bricks. I picked a shadier part of the plaza figuring that would make the scene more interesting. But the shadows ended up obscuring the 777, so I did a good deal of photoshop work on this. Usually I don't pump up the saturation a ton, but in this case, I went ahead.

What does the word styrofoam mean?
Read about it at my blog post, "The word Styrofoam has origins in trees."
Ten random thoughts, in no particular order of importance.
1. Never again will I ever consume one quart of milk all in one sitting. Ever.
2. Why is it in Chicago, some apartment toilets lack tanks and look like these public restroom things?
3. When I was seven, at the Honolulu zoo, I was using my right foot to kick the plunger and flush the toilet, but something happened and my foot ended up in the toilet. Oh, those pink Nike double-strapped velcro shoes. My physical therapist would attribute this mishap to my poor proprioception.
4. Nathan, my vegetarian roommate in college, used to drown mice caught in sticky traps in the toilet. I was partial to the spring-loaded snap trap. Hamilton Court, good times.
5. I hope I will never have to experience a swirly in my lifetime.
6. At physical therapy two days ago, someone evidently had an explosive diarrheal episode in the bathroom, missed the toilet, and left a trail in the hallway. I heard about this from my physical therapist. This happens in real life?
7. Cholera toxin induces endless outpour of watery, rice-y stool. It has to do with adenylate cyclase and cyclic adenosine monophosphate.
8. Clear and copious--how everyone should be doing it.
9. I had the stomach flu on December 31st, 2009. BEST New Years EVER.
10. There are few things I despise more than single ply toilet paper. Peppermint. It tastes like toothpaste.

Little miniature goblets made from candy wrappers. Selling for $8000. That's $8.42 per goblet. How much liquid can each goblet hold? They are little micro shot glasses. Although I suppose that's part of their artisticness is that they are so thin and fragile. And they did at one point hold something consumable--a piece of candy.

I should have made it say "picnic table" instead of "picnic bench." It's really the table that is wider. The benches are broken up into segments, so people can easily get in and out.
Mentioned already in the comments, I'm adding this to the caption too. This photo reminds me of my first blog post in 2001, Long live long tables.
Dan Peterman's "Running Table" (1997), a 100 foot-long picnic table constructed of recycled plastic material, is the most visible of his recent works and presently shares a plaza in Millennium Park with Anish Kapoor’s Cloudgate
