What else can one see in my city, beside SWAT teams (with dogs, thank you) on the subway?





How about a monk in robes AND freshly shaved AND spray-tanned calves in the same ten feet?!
Remarkable, yes?!





How about this gorgeous picture my boss purchased in London?
It had been crated up in our office for months and I finally sent it down the block to the framer and had it done up in double mats and museum glass and a gorgeous frame.
It's breathtaking in real life and I was only a little ashamed to admit that I had never had anything professionally framed before.
It cost a king's ransom too, which may have had something to do with my inexperience.





A new Star Wars project was announced at my office this week. I know four boys who will be very excited when it is finished.

I've been playing Word Jewels on my phone, on the train.




Can you see SUSE? And SHAWL?
Lots of points for those words, played this evening.
BUT ALSO: Suse has sent me two (TWO!) exquisite shawls and I am in heaven.
It is still cool enough in the morning to wear them and, after the air conditioning freezes us in the office, will be cool enough to wear them in the office.
They are GORGEOUS and I'll get you photos ASAP.
Sigh.
All notable.
