The Kind of Day...

            This excerpt was taken from the masterful Gish Jen from the short story collection "Who's Irish."  The shot is from the day of the Chinese New Year Celebration in Chicago south side in Chinatown...recently, I had a scare that I didn't have any photographs in the file folder I had labeled for the Chinese New Year celebration and I started panicking but then I found a card on my desk that had the 3,000+ photos I took.  In other words, (or related news) I am a barely functioning personal hot mess.  I hope you like this one.
