Welcome back to the weekly installment of extra pictures. It cleans out the files. It gives me content, of a sort.<\/p>\n

On with it, then. Still life tomato. We have so many tomatoes around here. We get them in our weekly veggie basket from a store we visit. Some nice people we know brought us some more. They’re just piling up, like every other healthy food here. We are eating so well these days. Only I can’t eat these things fast enough. Life is hard, I know. <\/p>\n

If you were wondering about that ladder the other day<\/a>, yes, I only showed you the top. I like the rail and the sliding and reaching for far, out of reach books. I like the notion of getting lost, leaning on that ladder, in some old passage I’d forgotten about. <\/p>\n

I didn’t show you the middle of the ladder because ladders are ladders are horizontal lumber. Here’s the bottom, though:<\/p>\n

This is the balcony view at the J&M store on South College. Pretty casual today, but the students come back soon. It’ll pick up.<\/p>\n

We developed a theory in undergrad that you could identify people’s age by the name to which they referred to the places that were always in flux. This place, to me, is Lil Ireland’s and, on the left, Ultravox, around the corner. It isn’t Blue’s or Sky Bar or any other place. This is Lil Ireland’s. By the time I was a senior Ultravox had changed hands so many times no one but the townies recalled that name. <\/p>\n

I wish the old movie theater was still on this lot, though. The era of downtown theaters is one I’d like to experience, but I missed it by a few years.<\/p>\n

I’m sending this picture and telling people they’re tearing it down. They’re rebuilding the brick facade, a nice job for August, I’m sure. <\/p>\n
