Also, I acquired a hot red couch to alleviate the chronic Ills Manor problem of Five having no furniture of his own; the sorrow in his eyes had grown too terrible to bear.
Today I got a queen-sized Tempur-Pedic bed from my friend George. I will later buy a wine glass, some high-brow vintage from Franzia, and a bowling ball to conduct appropriate experiments on it.
I went with Mike and Will to a high school football game; Mike’s brother coaches, so we were allowed to shoot from the sidelines. I didn’t get any good sports shots, but noticed that football, like many things, is full of patterns when frozen. It was enormously fun.
The making of this week’s GPOYW, which layers one flash exposure and one long exposure, required several jumps to work out the kinks. Dogs make good assistants on these sorts of assignments because they think it’s awesome when you do stupid things.
Chris and Alexi are just unreal, multilingual polymaths, kind and hilarious and as admirable as anyone I’ve ever met. Chris has a tumblelog, too.
