Despite the catawampus weekend and untrammeled city amblings, which on many levels I’m sure some would aptly claim was flouting grounds of moral turpitude (uh yeah, maybe of my… bank account), so far so good. I confess, the early morning outfit/minimal coffee brigade was slightly annoying… you know, when it’s not one thing it’s six others, and by then you’ve reached a breaking point while shouting ‘f@*k it’ at the top of your lungs. Albeit no one’s listening.
I’ve been meaning to post these photographs for a while, so I pulled them before they narrowly escaped being plunged into the near-retirement section of Picasa. Boring outfit... and the vintage boots, for some bizzarro reason, remind me of Ichabod Crane. Don’t ask me why. lol
A little storytelling... A modicum of silence swallowed the room as dusty shards of sunlight patterned the multicolored carpet. Decorated with an army of garish jewelry, everything jingles, almost intentionally, as the woman perched behind the large candy counter brushes invisible lint from her blouse. Her silvery hair is the color of cotton candy. She offers a genuine smile before shifting her gaze downcast towards her slender hands. Briefly, she examines their delicate surface that is creviced by time and wiser than yesterday. At four quarters per ride, it was a small price for six minutes of uncontaminated childhood reminiscence to sweep the memory warehouse. And while we kept the company of an epoch 1920’s carousel, 60 handcrafted horses, and funky reindeer, we went round and round, faster and faster… letting it take us to those secret places we almost forgot existed. --Bella H. p.s.

I'm glad you retrieved them before these met their demise from the virtual death blender of Picasa.
You know, now that you've mentioned Ichabod Crane i too can see the shoes' likeness to his own. Perhaps it the dark no nonsense sturdy look of them? Or perhaps its just cause you said it lol.
you're oh so pretty.
