A day of images at home…
Outdated-looking drawer in the kitchen of our rental. I liked the way the morning light was filtering in through the blinds.
I got this great Fiesta ware pitcher as part of a gift from my parents for high school graduation. I now use it to store cooking utensils on the stove.
Part of our vintage ceramic and teak lamp. It still needs a huge vintage shade to match it, but for now we’re using a fairly nondescript one from Target.
There wasn’t room on the book case for some film books I inherited, so they’re on display on the lone open shelf on a vintage cabinet we recently found. Next to them is an old air pressure gauge Derek found at his aunt and uncle’s consignment shop.
And finally: A hint of things to come. Out of difficult times comes creativity. I plan to put it to good use as I prepare for an art sale at my friend’s coffee shop next month.
Getting in the Halloween spirit
Last night I came up with an idea I really wish I would have thought of earlier. A handful of blocks away from our house is a former nursing home that is currently sitting empty. It would have made a great haunted house! Done properly, I think it could have ranked up there with one that is done every year at the Glore Psychiatric Museum (which is housed in an old psychiatric hospital) in St. Joseph, MO. Spooky!

What is my perfect crime? I break into Tiffany’s at midnight. Do I go for the vault? No. I go for the chandelier; it’s priceless. As I’m taking it down, a woman catches me. She tells me to stop. It’s her father’s business. She’s Tiffany. I say no. We make love all night. In the morning the cops come and I escape in one of their uniforms. I tell her to meet me in Mexico but I go to Canada. I don’t trust her. Besides, I love the cold. Thirty years later I get a postcard. I have a son. And he’s the Chief of Police. This is where the story gets interesting: I tell Tiffany to meet me in Paris by the Trocadero. She’s been waiting for me all these years. She’s never taken another lover. I don’t care. I don’t show up. I go to Berlin. That’s where I stashed the chandelier.

I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it’s the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It’s probably the most important thing in a person.
