One of my favorite aspects of the job was eating my “lunch” in the 8th floor break room of an empty city building that had a great view of the city at 3 A.M.

The only light in the room came from the vending machines and since I was scheduled for an hour at that building I had time for a nice relaxed “lunch”.

Sounds kinda weird but I used to love to look out that window while listening to “Songbird” by Kenny G it just seemed to fit the moment.

I also liked checking the roof of the City Admin Building in the middle of the night.

I especially liked doing that gig on Christmas Eve when there was literally no one but me on the streets.
