Mid-afternoon break from school

Today the sun poked out and brought some Spring-ish warmth with it. So, instead of going to the gym, I decided to take a stroll downtown, deposit a check and get some food. Yesterday my friend Phillip mentioned that he was going to get a Kosher dog for lunch later on and ever since I had been craving one. Just out front of my bank sat a hot dog vendor. Hassim. He really wanted me to try his chicken kabobs or gyros or humus, but I had a hankering for a dog. So, as he prepared it and topped it with sauerkraut, I asked him where he was from. Israel. Go figure. I got a can of Squirt, pulled up a curb in the sun and devoured the best tasting Polish sausage I've ever had. I love living in a city.
