Because yesterday was Halloween, I naturally thought about costumes.
Of course, we all wear costumes of some sort, every day. In a little while, I have to put on a working-at-the-hospital-in-person costume, which is different from the costumes I wear when I’m working at home or having a day off from work.
Do you see any costumes in today’s images?
It looks like it’s going to be a busy day, so I hope I choose the right costume!
Here’s what I find when I search YouTube for “costumes”:
Here’s the song that’s playing in my head as I create this “costumes” post:
Thanks to all who showed up wearing costumes today, including YOU!
Here’s the first entertaining image I captured yesterday.
Today, my boyfriend Michael and I are looking at a home described this way on the entertaining website Trulia:
This charming and sunny single-family home features an open floor plan on the first level of the home, making it perfect for entertaining.
Actually, Michael and I do very little entertaining, even though we’re pretty entertaining people. I find it entertaining that the Trulia description completely omits the most entertaining aspect of this home for me: it’s REALLY close to the entertaining Atlantic ocean. I’ve decided that because I find U.S. politics so completely unentertaining, I need the entertainment of long walks on the Massachusetts seashore.
Speaking of the entertaining Massachusetts seashore, my entertaining boyfriend and I recently saw the movie Manchester by the Sea. You might find it entertaining to know that I grew up in an entertaining town very close to Manchester-by-the-Sea on the North Shore of Boston, and I find it entertaining that Manchester-by-the-Sea was just called Manchester back then. Here’s a quote from entertaining Wikipedia:
To prevent confusion with the nearby and much larger city of Manchester, New Hampshire, the name of the town was officially changed in 1989 following a close town meeting vote that year and an act of the state legislature passed on September 25, 1989.
By the way, Manchester by the Sea is an amazing movie. It’s an incredible combination of soulful humanity, searing tragedy, unblinking honesty, superb acting, skillful direction, beautiful cinematography, and surprisingly entertaining dialog — a film I will always remember. If I were an entertainment critic, I would strongly urge you to see it. Also, if you find Boston accents entertaining, there are lots of them in Manchester by the Sea.
Guess what I saw yesterday and forgot to include in this post when I published it an hour ago?
Guess what this cat is lying on?
A dog bed!
Guess what new kind of fruit I saw for the first time yesterday?
A mini apple!
Guess what would be a good next line?
“How do you like them apples?”
“Does a mini apple a day keep only short doctors away?”
“Do mini apples come from Minneapolis?”
[your guessed line here]
Guess what bread you use to make an American cheese sandwich?
Guess what is the inside to this greeting card?
Guess what? I will reveal the answer to that question when I get a guess about the inside of that greeting card from one of you!
Guess what I was doing yesterday evening?
You might not have guessed it from those photos, but I was food shopping yesterday evening with my boyfriend Michael at a new-to-us supermarket.
Guess what supermarket it was?
Guess what I was thinking as I took these few photos after food shopping?
Guess what I’m doing today?
I’m going back to work after a two-week vacation in Edinburgh with my son and I’m probably making plane reservations to Minneapolis for my September 21 heart surgery.
Guess what I’m worried about, right now?
I’m letting go of all worries. Guess what you could do with worries, too?
