And another horrible heat wave. Did I mention I’m not good in the heat? God, I hate it. I prefer beaches at night and in the winter. I also have to do a laundry tonight. Timing-wise tonight is the only time that’s going to work for me in the next few days.

I took this picture of a building at the corner where 7th Avenue, Greenwich and 11th meet. A horrible corner, by the way, crossing the street-wise. I took it because I don’t think I ever quite looked up at the brick building and noticed its Flatiron building-like shape.

There are hundreds of them!! The Old Spice guy been answering people’s questions on the internet and every one of them has been genuinely funny so far. This is fucking brilliant.

Trust me. Try one and this one and see if you can stop watching.

I was all, ‘Oh my god, that pigeon has one leg!’ But a minute later his other leg came down. But only for a few seconds. Do they all do this and I just never noticed?

I swear he was hanging out like this for a half an hour, on one leg.

He was a plump little guy too. Wait a minute! He does this to play on people’s sympathies and gets more food. Right??

It’s a well known pigeon scam and I’m the last to know.

I can’t take the ugliness surrounding the proposed Cordoba House, aka the Ground Zero Mosque, which is neither a mosque NOR at ground zero. It’s a community center which is going to include a prayer space and the suggested site is Park Place which is not ground zero.

America was founded on religious freedom. What better response could there be to the attacks than religious tolerance? To show the world that we know the difference between terrorists and people of good faith?

Finney is going to the vet for his follow-up sonogram this morning. I’ve been nervous about this swelling around the incision. Apparently it’s normal (as long as it’s not oozing) but I’ll feel better when they take a closer look. He seems fine except he’s drinking and peeing massive amounts. It’s raining though, is the thing. I am not looking forward to lugging this great big cat in the rain.

I need reading glasses, by the way. I’ve tried two places so far and no go. The glasses at one drugstore (a very nice fancy drugstore near me called Bigelow’s) were $75!! I’m going to try Loehmans and Little Rickys next.

These are pigeons in Washington Square Park.
