Yay, nice things!
I forgot my wallet and only realized AFTER I had ordered my coffee and picked up the paper. Someone behind me was nice enough to get it for me. And today is my favorite kind of weather!

Well, it's official
My dog HATES the iphone. He keeps trying to take it from me whenever I pick it up. I think I am going to have to do what I did to the Roomba and scold the iphone in front of the dog. Seriously.

Denton-louder than Times Square
I got a call Saturday morning from Chris, who lives in New York. He asked where the hell I was and why it was so loud. I told him Jupiter House.
He said that he was in the middle of Times Square and it wasn't that loud there. (This led to many questions about why he was in Times Square.)

Short reads
Six Word Memiors
True Stories. One sentence.
Some favorites:
One night on ecstasy, I stopped a fight between two drag queens in the ladies restroom and then I made them give each other a hug.
When I was 5 or so my mom would tell me to lie down before she tied my tie and I just now realized at the age of 19 that she did this because she's a funeral director.
I held my father's hand as he died in that hospital room and realized I'd never held his hand before that moment.

Making Books video from 1947
I love watching assembly lines, I think they are calming. This is a nice little video showing the process of making books. I like the sexism at about 8:25 in.

Book of Smells
Oh my, this book looks delightful:
http://www.cornerhouse.org/books/info.aspx?ID=2719&page=0
It catalogs scents that most people have never had the chance to smell such as the smell of the bubonic plague and the metallic smell that follows an atomic explosion.
I don't see it available anywhere.
