saturday stuff
it was my monthly massage
i love
having
all my aches
all my tightness
stress
vanish
my body
feels
like
overcooked pasta
in a good way
after
being kneaded for an hour
my normally
very dry skin
feels so soft
looks normal
vs
looking like the parched desert
after i left the spa
i decided
to walk
back
across town
i have never walked across via the transverse
in fact
i have never walked across town
ever
before
this fitbit
is
truly spurring me on
i paused
to take some iPhone photos
(neither of these are signed)
when i got out of the park
i walked down 81 street
to
amsterdam
i decided to pick up lunch
there's a hummus place
called
on the corner
i stopped in
they have a veggie wrap
i asked
if they could make it
without
the chickpeas
i am not a big unmashed chickpea fan
the woman taking my order said
absolutely
she asked
did i want hot sauce?
yes please
plastic utensils?
no thank you
turkish coffee?
yes please
it took a few minutes to prepare
i waited
amusing myself
by looking at the photos i had taken
when i got home
i opened the package
the coffee had been put in a cup with the top taped
and
then
in a plastic bag
a good thing
because
it leaked
they also
taped sugar packets to the lid
i dont use sugar
but
it dissolved
mixed into the coffee
due to the leak
the plastic utensils
were fine
even tho i didn't need them
there was no hot sauce
and
you guessed it
the wrap
was
99% chickpeas
i picked out all i could
before
giving up
biting into it
i thought there was some plastic in with the chickpeas
no
it was just the eggplant rind
picked that out too
i was left with
a pita
wrapped
around
spinach
two small pieces of red pepper
a little piece of tomato
the coffee
even tho it was sweet
was good
if you go to hummus kitchen
dont order the veggie wrap
...
toonman and i decided to take a walk
a variation
on
our normal two routes
we walked along the river
it was beautiful
but
oh so windy
i think the gulls were enjoying the wind
they seemed to be wind surfing
i got some
i think
great shots
by
keeping my finger
depressing the shutter
i can pick and choose which ones to keep
i wish i had video taped them
they were having such a good time
here
see for yourself
oh yeah
the buoys
were
sunbathing
