After dinner Dan and I made our way back to Union Square. He's dog-sitting this week down there for a well-to-do friend in a high rise apartment overlooking downtown. It's posh, and it's rad, and it fills me with apartment envy, which happens all too often here in this city. We spent a few glorious minutes just sitting on the benches in Union Square watching people do-si-do around each other on their way to somewhere important, or just sauntering, biking, or skating around trying to look cool. We noticed the high turnover rate at these benches and talked about many different scenes we could do there in the park, just to see if people would watch (like, if he were to walk up to the bench where I was sitting and reading, pretending to be a stranger, but just sitting very close to me then putting his arm around me.) Oh the routines we've got to work out! The weather was fantastic-perfect actually, and it was just nice to be out in the city. Summer has arrived!
We finished up the evening in Barnes and Noble were we bought the book Skinny Bitch because my mom and Ellen told me to.
While walking to check the dog one last time, we came across this weird projector on the corner of University and 14th St. Perhaps they'd just showed a movie, or maybe it was some weird art thing, but I had fun making shadow puppets with my hands against the building across the street in the blue light. Making my mark with shadow puppets...classy!
