anxieties
It’s not enough that the dog has anxieties, but I had to go and not even get his WHOLE FACE in the photo. How rude of me. I mean, I’m not like the biggest dog-lover you’ll ever see, but I still feel bad about my actions.
I only hope the dog is anxious to the point where his human keeps him away from social media so he won’t know what I did.

I really don’t have the faintest idea what that guy was doing up there – the one standing in front of the red window. It’s not like it was a balcony. It’s not like it was balcony weather. I just don’t know. It may have had something to do with the spirit merchant on the ground floor or it might not have. Other than that guy, I suspect that no one else knows. Or even noticed what was going on.
It was one of those reflex photos – I saw it and made the shot without taking time to do stuff like composing it or anything. The moment was there and then it was gone, possibly because a bus drove by.

I didn’t actually even own an umbrella until I was 19 years old and was moving from Lubbock to a wetter locale for college. And then I went someplace even wetter for grad school, where I know for sure I kept umbrellas in my car all the time. But then I came back to Lubbock and probably don’t quite recall how to open an umbrella. And when I went to Scotland last year, I didn’t even take an umbrella with me. I’m not a total idiot – I had a waterproof coat with a hood and anyway how can you hold an umbrella AND use a camera?
