I forget why I climbed up on my kitchen counter, but I liked how my apartment looked from up there. Except there are two areas of clutter that are bugging me. The coffee table, and the wires under my desk.

I have tried repeatedly but I have never been able to make those wires look neat. It drives me nuts. The coffee table I can do something about.

I quit. Yes, never mind the HUGE container of sunflower seeds hanging behind you. The one that has been there for the taking for the past two months.

That’s right little guy. Almost there.

Oh thank God. Finally. I have managed to feed a bird.

What!

Is!

IT???

I didn’t kill it.

Cool wings, though.

It doesn’t look quite real, does it?

Okay.

Back to Season 1 of Big Bang Theory.

I wish this picture wasn’t out of focus.

It’s bugging me.

And I can’t get the bug back for take 2.

Thank GOD.

It’s so easy to get lost in research.  In fact, I’m going to dive right back in.  But I wanted to post this picture I took of 50th Street, off Beekman Place.  It was such a lush, pretty block.  I walked back down it a couple of hours later, when it was night, and the block felt positively enchanting. I made a little movie, but it didn’t come out alas.  But I think you can imagine it, from this picture.

I took these this morning to remind myself that most people take good care of their pets. I know there are many exceptions, but I still think most people love their pets and give them good lives.

Here’s Buddy sleeping on my arm.

And here’s Finney snoozing about a foot away. Everyone was all well fed and taking their post-breakfast nap. Eating is so much work. That looks like a pizza box in the background, but it isn’t. If only.
