Wake up...

its about 60 degrees in Phila today... its gonna be an awesome week. to take advantage of this beautiful weather, i decided to take a nap in Rittenhouse square. Whenever i go to Rittenhouse i'm reminded of Central Park in New York, people lying out on the grass on beach towels, guys with no shirts on, girls with bikini tops and big sunglasses... i guess this is what people do when all you have is the Atlantic coast, and even thats quite a drive away... (feel that west coast elitism...) For me, its less about the "beach" atmosphere, and more about the Davis nostalgia...
During my time at davis, i always got stuck with schedules with gaping holes, where there was too little time to go home and do anything of significance, so i had to figure out what to do with myself on campus... so i went through my mental multiple choice:

A) play Area 51 in the MU Games Area
B) hit up Orange Hut
C) people watch at the MU
D) study... (D for desperation move)
E) TAKE A NAP ON THE QUAD... (fully clothed...)

Theres just something about taking naps in public places... Although in my year and a half out here in Phila, this habit has gotten me into some trouble. i've definitely been threatened with "wake up... if i catch you again, youre out" at 3 different establishments. inevitably i comply, but over time, getting caught just becomes part of the thrill...
