My fabulous bloody adventure

In one of my adventures through the city since we last met for our class I went to a gallery or two with a couple of friends. I started my journey off by taking the subway from cecil B. down to the federal elsworth station. Needless to say the broad street line is typically an adventure in itself. After meeting up with my group of "adventurers" at a friends house in S. philly we then proceeded to walk north up to pine where we went to a show at a gallery called "Trickgo". After engaging in some silly conversations with people I didnt know, we set out for another gallery. Unfortunately on the way to this new space my girlfriend lost her phone and we spent about an hour searching the cold streets for an item that was surely picked up by a stranger. We missed the openning at this next gallery and went straight to a party at a friends house. Though this is enough of an adventure on its own we haven't yet gotten to the juicy part. After sleeping the night through at the house where I initially met up with my fellow "adventurers" my girlfriend and I left to once again trace our steps and hopelessly search for her cell phone.  On our walk back up to Pine our path was cut by a line of police cars and on-lookers. On the corner of Broad and Christian there was a man laying in a pool of blood who had just fallen from the roof of a three story building. I understand this is pretty dark for a computer class blog, but I figured this blog is the place to share whatever the hell has happened to me in this town.
