out and about

i started my day by letting nissa know that we were going to meet my friend rocio for lunch. "rocio? i LOVE rocio, she has curly hair just like me!" we slowly, but surely made our way out the door and caught the bus to the el. yes, ani is strapped to my person and nissa walked on her own. we enjoyed a lunch on the famed pedway, picked up a birth certificate for ani, visited rocio's office and took the scenic way to the brown line. the irving bus stop was full of high school students, so we grabbed a crepe to buy some time. we then took the bus to revere park, where nissa made a friend to run around with and play in the dirt. we walked home from there. it was an unseasonably warm, though very windy, day and we really enjoyed it to the fullest. nissa got blown over a little, but we made it home in one piece. ani was a real trooper the whole time and patiently wen along for the ride.
