What's for dinner?

Tuna melts!

Not too shabby.

I would like to shake the hand

Of whoever designed this banner.

Found

Pan pipes of Brooklyn.

Public school

They turned the library into a classroom.

I sure hope these books make it back onto shelves.

Especially this one:

Cause it looks awesome!

Today

I went on a swing in Beacon, New York!




Greg took an excellent pichure of my ass. Thank you Greg.

Yesterday

The donut store in my neighborhood is just the best. (They were completing the September 11 decorations while we were there.)

Found

In a pot by the side of the road in a rain storm:

The internet tells me it is portulaca. I hope I can take care of it.

(I think my geranium has some kind of blight; it's so upsetting!)

Surveillance

Cactuses!

The awesomeness of our apartment

The view from the bedroom window, for one thing.

Good-bye, chicken people.

Found!

On the Upper East Side, in a box by the curb:
 

Some napkins and a couple placemats.

I like 'em.

Cactus update!

"Because you've been wondering."^TM

Remember this little guy, grown from a sproat stolen from an estate sale?
 

So big now!

This one had a pink cactus grafted onto that white bit on the top of the main stem (remember, from Christmas?), which I impetuously pulled off a couple months ago:

That whole side sproat has grown since then, complete with roots!

And these two are bits of that giant cactus I saw on the street that time:

Now both pieces are growing new leaves on top!



My mom made that little pot for me, using a cabbage leaf as a mold. So perfect. Thanks Mom!

Sharpie on the ground

Greg picked it up, tested it on his hand, then stuck it in his pocket.

A very proud day for yours truly.

Greg's camera

It takes really pretty food pictures. That's our lunch on Friday!

My camera:


Not so nice.

I stayed late at work, and I was so hungry when I got home that those two fried eggs with Sriracha made my night.

Backpack Kitty

Immortalized.

I love The Golden Smith. (So does B. Kitty.)

Cat surveillance

Shorts

Do you try them on and they look terrible?

Me too. UNTIL—last week Greg rehung our full-length mirror, and suddenly they looked OK.

I'm going with it!

The amazing

Duck head stick.

Found by the amazing me!

Rockaway Beach!

It's quite an interesting scene.

You can get really good food (and coffee!).

There are items to find.

Waves galore:

The incredible ocean.

I patted this walrus.

And, the best thing: when you're done, if you stand in line a lady will hose off your legs for you.

Dr. Jones

He needs a house! Let's make one for him.

He likes it.

Rare sighting

Parking lot mitten in summer.

Morbidity

I also added a sticky note for Lucian Freud.

It's an odd sort of record keeping, but it will save time when we reprint the book.

Upper East Side

Outside a school.





It's a chair.

That "teacher" style of printing is so characteristic; I have it also, from years of marking up page proofs.
