faces in a crowd: i'm back in the saddle again

Hello, Cupcakes!

I am posting this from my new Mac laptop. It's just like my old one, only newer, faster, more improved. I don't know about you but I get really sentimental about stuff like this. But I can get this way about all kinds of inanimate objects: back when we lived in NYC, Mr. Dot (my Big) remembered me using the same plastic Evian bottle, with the label removed. He said that's one of the things he loved about me, the way I 'deitified' objects. (That all changed, of course, once we lived together: those same deities somehow magically started disappearing.)

I remember that bottle well: it had such a classic shape (they've since changed it). I wonder what became of it: it's probably buried in a mountain of garbage, poor thing.



It was really strange with the laptops, actually: I ordered my new one before the old one 'died'. But the last few days, the cord was going and going.. it's like It KNEW its soul was about to be transferred. Do you believe in reincarnation? I do. I'm sure our cat is reincarnated from our previous one. And same with this laptop. Welcome to our world, Little Laptop! You're not an iPad, and I'm glad! Big is beautiful.





Anyway, what does this have to do with this post? Absolutely nothing whatsoever. Just some shots of people in the crowd at Graduation Fashion Week last Thursday, for your viewing enjoyment. It was a dark cold rainy day and I noticed people tended to wear quiet shades of grey, or went for bold brights, like red or yellow. Few pastels to be seen.




It might not feel that long to you that I was gone- you probably didn't even notice, but for this blogger, I must say, it's good to be back in the saddle again!
