Stray ironing board. BYO iron + cover.

Man walking down Broadway with his cat sitting on his head (why didn't I take a picture??).



These girls in the subway had the same haircut, the same glasses, the same tshirt, the same BAG. Also note the poster behind: "Be someone else, be KANYE!" (Related video; is this a Phenomenon that I am unaware of because I'm out of touch? Subway ads are often my only brush with reality. PS I highly recommend watching it.)

Also, last night I went on LL's work boat cruise around lower Manhattan. We got to see all the public-art waterfalls by Olafur Eliasson. And, it was the closest I've come to the Statue of Liberty (photo by crappy iPhone camera makes Lady Liberty look farther than she really is).

Window cat + Canada Day

Well everybody, I spent my first Canada Day as an American resident yesterday. No day off! But I wore a red & white shirt, ironically it was I heart NY. At work we listened to all Canadian music and sang the national anthem at staff meeting, then later LL and I had some beers at the pub. Unfortunately not Canadian beer, they sell basically none here in NY.





On the way to rice pudding we met a kitty in the window, she had the most enormous tail and followed us around from inside the store.

I left the best till last

On my trip I am also going to see Philamena, assuming I can fit into her busy schedule (I hear it's already filling up).



I put her in a post all her own so she would get the attention she deserves.
