Lis's Project 365

I love this. Someone (or perhaps many someones) is stealing the Herald.  If you’re going to risk stealing something, at least make it something good. The Herald? Come on, now.

On the other hand, it means the Herald is losing money. Not such a bad thing.

yet another last day for someone at work today, so after work we went to a bar called Drink. It’s kind of fun; while you can certainly just order a drink, you can also just tell the bartender the kind of thing you’re in the mood for, and they’ll custom make it, possibly with these little add-in flavors, most of which were incomprehensible, at least to me..

saw this monk (I assume) getting on board an  Amtrak train today and thought “well, yeah, I guess monks need to get around too.” it’s a and yes, it’s a technically poor photograph. it was the best I could do today.

Steady blue, clear view.

Flashing blue, clouds due.

Steady red, rain ahead.

Flashing red, snow instead.*

*except during Red Sox season, when this means the game is called on account of weather. although I’ve also heard that it means the Sox won. Or lost.

there is this stereotype that women love shopping for shoes. it does not apply to me. at all. I find it frustrating to no end.  And PS….as usual, today was an epic failure.

As I hung out with these ducks today, I watched the reactions of people coming up to see them. Almost every single person smiled, got excited and said “ducks!” I don’t really know what it is about ducks that is so appealing, but there’s definitely something. Maybe it’s their little tails, or the cheerful but funny sound they make. But everyone loves ducks.

personally I never thought of a bathroom stall as a place to critique a film, but who knows…maybe it’s the next big thing.

it seems like the beginning of a bad joke:  so a Thai dancer, an Indian drummer and an owl all walk into a bar…

Met a couple of friends for lunch today at Bakers Best, a cafe in Newton. Very delicious, and great to see some former BCM’ers.
Mine was order #3.

As I prepared to take this picture, a man on a bicycle asked me to move a bit so he could lock his bike to the railing. I said I’d just be a sec, I was taking a picture, and he naturally asked what I was photographing. When I pointed out the letters on the ground he said “Ah! to paraphrase Sherlock Holmes, I see but I do not observe.” So I told him about Project365, and how it gets you to notice stuff you might not have noticed otherwise.
