The thing about cities

1. Easy to get around, you can walk to everywhere,
2. but there’s a maccas and a coffee chain on every corner, so you don’t have to
3. People tell you they’ll be in ‘early’ tomorrow
4. they arrive at 9:30
5. and leave at 4.
6. people are everywhere
7. they don’t look at each other
8. they don’t talk to each other
9. they bump into each other
10. this is the city version of community engagement
11. and because it’s such a big place a random person in my team
12. has a boyfriend from my town
13. his parents live on the street behind me
14. and teach at my kids’ school
15. but there is sushi on every street and I like that very much
