Happy MLK Jr day to everyone...although, since I didnt get a day off work..bah hum bug.
The bus wasnt that crowded today. I feel good that the crazies observe the holiday, but Safeco doesnt...sure. The bus was stopped and as I looked outside I saw a dude asking for change. Now, this is not an uncommon occurrence in downtown Seattle. However, as I looked closely at this dude, he was wearing a brand new North Face jacket. How did I know it was a brand new jacket you may ask. Well, I will tell you: it was bright white and if I can barely keep white items clean, I guarantee that this dude cant either. So here are some of the thoughts that ran through my brain:
1. If I were begging for change, I wouldnt wear a brand new expensive item...kinda doesnt appear that one would need change if one can afford North Face.
2. Did he steal it? If so, then why would anyone reward crime with spare change?
3. I am actually slightly jealous of this guy...the jacket was darling!
4. I give it till the end of the week till that jacket is a nice shade of dirt
5. I kinda wish I was out there as I would definitely say something to this guy about this...I am sure it would have made for a better blog
Tomorrow is another day...and fingers crossed, another blog!
So did you ever see this guy again and what happened to the jacket?
