Overheard a guy at the hardware store say he spent $50 on a single steak dinner and I just thought about my pot of chili simmering at home.

Hit 500 repaired shutters this year, mostly on old mechanical SLRs. Is that a lot for a one-person shop, or just normal?

Wait, they're doing all that alone?

Honestly, what was your water temp for that pour over?

Found a single, perfect shoe in the old food court at the Sunrise Mall

That roller skate just makes you wonder, doesn't it? How does someone walk away from just one of those? It's like a tiny, weird piece of a story you'll never get to hear the rest of.

People keep calling everything a 'ritual object' and it drives me nuts

Doesn't that just shut down the whole conversation? I saw a museum label a weird stone lump a "ceremonial object" and it felt like a total cop-out. Your three-use rule is a MUCH better way to go.

Finally got that tricky draft horse in Salem to stand still for a full trim

Yeah, that standing there thing is real. I'll just stare at the computer screen for a solid five minutes before I even open a file. Sometimes I have to walk to the supply closet and back just to get my brain going. It feels silly but it's like a weird warm-up.
