\t\t\t\twhat what.<\/p>\n
had a fun if unproductive day, wasted walking to upper Astoria. a friend texted to say she saw a bag full of old slides on a sidewalk outside a church. i sprung into action to pounce on what could have been a gold mine. i imagined decades of rare NYC imagery in a bag full of righteously maintained kodachrome slides, but alas, all to be found was what looked like slides that accompanied church sermons, sort of like a Power Point presentation, but with slides. i don’t really collect those type of slides, and in fact i don’t collect slides very aggressively at all any more, unless they are obviously interesting.<\/p>\n
was a bedraggled and sodden day. no good news, no bad, news, but the work of life seems to have paid off by day’s end. i think i found a payphone story worthy of the payphone’s cultural esteem of the moment. i found a payphone that had a notice on it saying that you could dial *22 for access to news, sports, weather, stock prices, etc. it was amazing, really, such an awesome free call from a payphone. too bad it was under the subway, where the roar of the trains browned out the sound of the phone call.<\/p>\n
anyway, it’s an interesting little scandal of disenfranchisement. i’ll sort out my notes tomorrow. i have the day off tomorrow (huh huh, i have the day off every bleepin’ day).<\/p>\n
this unstructured life would be more interesting without alcohol, would it not?<\/p>\n
