Excited to find out when the city will be scheduling an enforcement blitz for this, like they just did for people riding their bikes on the sidewalk trying not to get killed by drivers! *touches earpiece* Uh-oh

Wait until the road ahead is clear. Keep everyone safe and avoid unnecessary fines!

Dreamed that I was temporarily principal viola in the Chicago Symphony. I don't play viola or live in Chicago, but they gave me a bucket of popcorn to celebrate my first concert so maybe I'll do their next audition
