BUTINSKY&#8217;s humorfulness needs ne explanation, but the MASSA one was funny because of an exchange i had with a bartender\/friend last week. i asked him for a glass o ice water and he, punchy and tired and hung over, said &#8220;OH YES, MASSA, I GETCHOO THAT ICE WATER, MASSA, I GET IT RIGHT AWAY!&#8221; to which i responded &#8220;Maybe i don&#8217;t understand the situation here.&#8221; he laughed and i self-rejoindered &#8220;What are you doing here? Why are you here?&#8221; and there was much laughter.<\/p>\n<p>other then that i just stared at the Civil War Monument, checked in on the Danielewszki site, and got a little too close for comfort to some of the groundskeepers horsing around, throwing punches at each other and staring at me kind of blithely as i stumbled into their space, heading to the bathroom.<\/p>\n<p>i took the DSLR out today for the first time in i don&#8217;t remember how long. i have this crazy camera full of closets&#8230; ahahaha, i meant to say closet full of cameras, but i&#8217;ll let it stayas camera full of closets  because it sounds dada &#8230; i have this crazy closet full of cameras. and who the fuck cares&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>for some reason i knocked out around midnight last night, hours earlier than my usual 3am bedtime regimen. and i was up by 10, which felt like a burden more than an opportunity. &#8220;what will i do with these extra hours?&#8221; i bafflingly asked myself. i guess i thought of something. i went outside to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[29],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1525","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-text","et-doesnt-have-format-content","et_post_format-et-post-format-standard"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/paumAn-oB","jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wsbj.com\/sorabji\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1525","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wsbj.com\/sorabji\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wsbj.com\/sorabji\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wsbj.com\/sorabji\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wsbj.com\/sorabji\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1525"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wsbj.com\/sorabji\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1525\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wsbj.com\/sorabji\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1525"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wsbj.com\/sorabji\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1525"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wsbj.com\/sorabji\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1525"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
