11 29 pm est   [ went ]

[ edamame ]

I went to the store for edamame*, my newest culinary obsession. They are salted boiled soy beans, and I pop 'em out of the pod and eat 'em like popcorn. They are a very healthy snack!

[ screaming kids ]

 

[ motherly love ]One of the roads was blocked off to traffic, and as I walked down it I saw it was filled with hundreds of screming kids. Apparently an entire school had dumped its contents; I have no idea what that was all about. The children were a blur as the ran about taunting each other and leaping into their mothers' arms.

 

 

[ convex mirror ]

There weren't any other interesting images until I came upon my own reflection in a convex mirror. People stared as I paused to capture the image.

[ distorted reflection ]

two years ago today: "Los Angeles has opened her arms and welcomed me."

one year ago today: "I was most worried, and wanted to take her to the hospital, but she refused."
