An Easy Day

Was today a simple day? Today for afternoon service I was only able to figure out that the group was meeting on "Roosevelt Road Section 5" which is about a half mile long of densely populated city. On the schedule after the street section it said something like "district big area front" which could be anything, I was not able to find anything official looking on the map. But I certainly didn't have anything better to do, so I got dressed, plugged in my not-iPod and walked off to the subway to get a train to "Roosevelt Road Section 5." Sure enough when I got there, it was pretty hopeless looking, but like I said I had nothing better to do.
Well, I had only walked about 6 blocks or so, wondering when i was going to run out of "Roosevelt Road Section 5," looking down all the cross streets, looking for nicely dressed people loitering somewhere in "front" of something. Then I saw an official looking government-like building that was on a side street, I happened to be on a pedestrian bridge so I could see a little farther.
It was the best lead I had, and liked I said I had nothing better to do. So to make a story (that is suddenly seeming to be uninteresting) short, when I got to the front sidewalk of this big government-like building, I didn't see anyone. But then I glanced to the side and walking away from me down another street, were my brothers and sisters. And by the way, today was the hottest yet, and the air was dead still.
Just a few minutes ago I got back from that new movie Ironman, it was fun, a pleasant diversion you could say. But what's interesting about watching American movies, and most of them are American, is that they are sub-titled in Chinese, so I got to enjoy the movie in English. When the movie is over you start to walk out and remember that you're in a foreign country, like you'd forgotten during the movie. (edit 324)
