that nurse seems unprepared
Side-show signage…somehow I just don’t think this little, weird scene is going to end well. That nurse seems unprepared for feeding two babies with only that one bottle, plus her uniform seems pretty tight for a job that involves bending over and picking up things (like, you know, babies); there’s a wardrobe malfunction in her future.

Looked back through some old stuff the other day and found this, which just shows that even when I didn’t know what I was doing with a camera I was still trying new stuff. (I mean, I am going to assume I meant for this to be blurry, but maybe it was just a mistake?)

She was happy, and happy to let me take her photo.
Also: it was so hot that I don’t understand how she kept her makeup from melting.

sidewalk seating
While I sat on a bench to people-watch (and grab some photos) the two men next to me were discussing whether or not to get two of the last eighteen tickets to the night’s drag show. I believe they eventually opted out because of the price, but really the point here is that the show was nearly sold out.
It was just one year ago that the City Council and the Mayor involved themselves in a kerfuffle regarding approval of arts funding for things they personally found distasteful. (Yes. They were pissy about a drag show.) The arts community pushed back and here we are.
If you ask me, which of course you did not, the City Council and Mayor would be much better served by figuring out any number of REAL problems we’ve got around here. But sure: drag shows are the main thing that needed taking care of.
But I digress. Here’s a picture.
