another moment

This afternoon, I went to the gym for the first time in, oh, maybe six months. Maybe more. Anyways, after I finished my time on the elliptical machine, I did a cool-down walk around the track, which overlooks the university's beach on Lake Michigan. Obviously, the beach is closed. But for a second it looked almost populated. It's been my experience that when people go to the beach, their choice of territory is somewhat predictable. We tend to gravitate towards the lifeguard chair and create a funnel-like formation out towards the water. Well, on this fall afternoon, roughly 150 white birds (perhaps sea gulls, or, more appropriately, lake gulls) hanging out on the beach and creating a formation identical to that which would be made by beach-goers in the summer. Strange.

Also, for the record, Go Sox.

I should have known you were a closet Sox fan. Exhibit A? The colors you chose for this blog.
