very simple

bought this fan a gazillion years ago, and it’s the best. Except for the part where there’s no easy way to open it up to clean it!

Again, a bulk post to catch up on the last week of photos:

133:365 (library card)

In the 6th grade, I checked out a library book that promptly fell behind my dresser, and not wanting to admit this, I never returned it. My fear of getting in trouble turned into me not getting another library card for over 20 years. At which point I realized that (a) they probably don’t keep records that long, (b) even if they did, replacing the book would cost, like, $20 (c) it was a biography of John James Audubon, so who the hell would even miss it and (d) I don’t even live in that town anymore.

So…new library card!

134:365 (on hold)

took this 1 hour and 4 minutes into being on hold with B&N digital support, because my nook was connecting to the internet just fine, but wouldn’t actually download any books. Took about 30 seconds to solve once I did get someone on the phone.

(please note that I have missed days 135 and 136 – the first ones ever, and I feel really bad about it, but I had a job interview and was totally distracted by that!)

137:365 (early morning)

Apparently the trick to getting a table at my local coffee shop is to get there really early in the morning.

Let me just say, that it was REALLY FREAKING COLD standing on this platform for almost 30 minutes at 1:30am waiting for the train to show up.

My friend Doug, at his 30th (!) birthday party. Now I feel old.

This is one of my coasters from my Eames coaster set. Probably the closest I’ll get to actually owning an Eames lounger.

This refrigerator magnet combines the features of being both enormous and too weak to actually hold anything.

for times when my kiehl’s lip balm just isn’t fancy enough for my purse.

a mainstay of every kosher delicatessen I have ever eaten it. By the way, I hate pickles.

I’m pretty sure I’m the last one on earth who hasn’t watched a single minute of The Wire, so I finally decided to bite the bullet and add it to my netflix queue. That’s not to say these discs won’t sit on top of my DVD player for 3 months before I actually start watching, but…it’s a start.
