Day 314 - November 11, 2012 - Short term power outage

Yosef needed to turn the power off. We had a situation in the garage. While the power was out temporarily and my flashlight was in use I was fascinated with the light the flashlight made against the sink and our soap bottles. So I snapped a photo.

Day 313 - November 10, 2012 - My bag is kind of breaking

One of my favorite Betsey Johnson purses is breaking and it's all my fault. I overstuffed it, so now one of the leather hinges is kind of falling apart. I stopped in Trader Joe's before work and bought two cheap tote bags (they are actually good quality bags, but the price was cheap) in addition to mangoes and sunflowers and a card for my 28 month celebration of dating Shawn. I put the bag in my desk drawer and put everything in the totes to go home with. I didn't want the bag to snap and then I'd have to carry it home in my arms.

Day 312 - November 9, 2012 - Now we have honey for life!

It was another frustrating commute day. I got home so late from trying to take a bus and train home because of this gas shortage. Also my bags were really heavy because I went to Trader Joe's and bought us lots of honey and some cat food for phantom. It wasn't a good day, except for the honey mission being completed.

Day 311 - November 8, 2012 - Cracked out cookies

I took this photo after midnight. I was playing with my camera, even though this looks like a bad ass possible drug spread, it's really a measuring cup with some flower and some chocolate chip cookie residue on a cookie pan leftover from baking cookies.

Day 310 - November 7, 2012 - My own private home...for about an hour

I went to Flushing today to meet my friend Jen. In a Nor'Easter on an off day I traveled to Flushing because I'm crazy like that. Jen was giving me copies of DOTV stuff for Diane (who lost her whole house in the hurricane) and she threw in some phantom of the opera stuff which I'm keeping. I got to the train station too late, I just missed the train so I had to wait an hour for the next one. I planned to actually camp out in this wind shelter, but then I realized I forgot my water bottle, so I walked back to the restaurant, retrieved my water bottle then sat in Starbucks with some tea until it was close to the time to catch my train.

Day 309 - November 6, 2012 - Voting is easy this year!

I was so worried about how I was going to vote. Turns out because of Sandy, Governer Cuomo allowed NYers who were displaced to vote in any polling place near them. So I went to vote at Franklin Elementary School, where I voted when I lived here.

Day 308 - November 5, 2012 - Ugh! Commuting problems seem to be here again

This was a terrible commuting week. I hope the upcoming week is better. The bus came very late and I thought I was going to miss this train, I made it on time to the station, but the train of course was running late. Winter's here!
