when I was in college in the late '80s this station was still functional, and I would come through it when I took the train home for weekend visits. the interior was stunning, vaulted ceilings, phenomenal light, echoing with emptiness-- it was clearly on its way out of functionality, but the shell it stands today is heartbreaking.

Spoiler Alert: I really enjoyed this film.
The toe is black at the surgery site. Weird.
...but no.
Terribly lit, huge plot holes, James Bond couldn't carry a tune into Kokkari (although he probably could get a dinner reservation before 10pm), but Meryl Streep is awesome, and I enjoyed every minute of this movie! I enjoy the ABBA, who knew?
...everything slows down enough. life and heart are like that cup running over, and I have been missing time to reflect and mull. living space continues to be in flux through the end of july, the conjunction of collectors presenting challenges and dilemmas and little bits of wrassling will ("but it's a perfectly good dresser! and it's storage. oh wait, now the front door won't open..."). there have been summer evening strolls by the lake and sand between the toesies, weddings with bagpipes and drums, concert picnics under the stars. there have been burgers at the billy goat and parking under bridges and pelmeni from the skokie market with vinegar and butter and icy sweating gin and tonics and sweet surprises of all kinds. there has been a plague of small but preoccupying health issues and the day-in-day-out of work routine. there have been visits with family and car trips and the thrill of planning actual proper roadtrip vacation. there is booking trucks and burly men. there are secrets and blessings and whispers. there are will-o-the-wisps of temper and mood and aggravation. there is hunting for parking and fireflies in the dusk and swarms of beetles winging six inches over the grass, illuminated by swooping headlights. it is a rich, good life. and the only thing I'm really missing is a coffee date with a girlfriend to just, yknow, blab.
