We are getting quite a bit of rain this morning. I'm lying in bed listening to it fall. I don't know of any more wonderful sound than a rainstorm outside when you're lying in bed inside.
New York moments:
-- I was walking to work Wednesday when I passed a man standing at a fruit cart, holding what looked like a self-help book titled “Who Stole My Bananas?” And he was buying bananas!
-- On the subway I saw a slender, blond, very attractive woman with extremely full, extremely lipsticky lips, reading a book called “Whores and Other Feminists.” Which turns out to be a series of essays by women who work in the sex industry.

It's raining here, too - not too hard, but it's steady and soothing. I love rain up to a point. After a few days of it, though, I long to see the sun.
ReplyDeleteI always say you can find just about anything in New York City. Enjoy the rain. It's a calm rain here.
ReplyDeleteLOL - I am a sucker for anything with bananas. They always make a great punch line. Great observations. Please remain on the look out for more because you have made me chuckle.
ReplyDeleteNo rain in sight, but I was snuggled in with new kitten Frank this a.m. Nothing like hearing that completely relaxed sigh of a contented animal . . .
ReplyDeleteGood catches...you have to always be paying attention.
ReplyDeleteThats a really cool photo too...great use of shadows and light with a lot of visual style.
oh hey, speaking of paying attention, my pal kissyface points out that David Wallace committed suicide at the end of Suicide Week.
I love the sound of rain on a roof top, especially if I don't have to be out in it...The green curtain is yet another stunning example of your attention to detail.
ReplyDeleteha, very funny. what an excellent post Mr. Reed and i love the photo.
ReplyDeleteQuite warm and very sunny here.
