I walked down Michigan Ave. for a stretch after work last night, partly because it was nice out and it's right down the street from my building. But mainly because I heard John Madden declare it the "greatest street in the world" on Sunday Night Football. It is a pleasant street to walk down, with all the commerce and the hot women to ogle. I have a hard time believing that Madden spends a hell of a lot of time on Michigan Ave when he's in town. I don't picture him prancing down to H&M to pick up a pair of low-rider jeans at a reasonable price(although he certainly has the hips for it). But I guess it's hard for me to imagine Madden existing anywhere outside of a football stadium or the "Madden Cruiser" bus he travels on.
I occasionally will walk part of the way home before hopping on some mode of public transportation. It's really my only consistent form of exercise, sadly. Once in a while I run around my neighborhood, but I usually lose interest quickly. It's probably about time I join a gym.
I stopped at the Virgin Megastore to browse the virgins, but it turns out they only have CDs. I am hooked on purchasing CDs, even in the midst of the itunes revolution. It's one of my few addictions, unless you count huffing paint thinner, which I don't. That I consider a hobby.
Have you seen that Gap commercial where Audrey Hepburn(I think?) dances to AC/DC? It's ruined "Back in Black" for me, because I can't get that spastic dancing out of my head. I don't know how that's supposed to sell black pants, because who would want to dance like that? Although I have spoken to a few girls who really like that commercial. So, perhaps I'm missing something. Heck, maybe that's what drew John Madden down to Michigan Ave.( I said "Heck" instead of "Hell" because that's what Madden would've said: "Tough Actin' Tinactin, it gets athlete's foot the heck outta your way.") "Thunderstruck" was briefly ruined for me last year, being a Cubs fan, but now I like it again, so I'm sure things will work out for "Back in Black" and I.
Well, it's not nice out tonight, so I'm not going to walk at all. Plus, I'm gonna hurry home and rewatch "Lost" if possible. I just started watching for the first time and I am confused as hell. Probably as confused as anyone trying to find a point to what I've written here.
