chocolatepotSo I'm an idiot, and I kept putting off getting an untrimmed straw 1860s bonnet and now nobody seems to have any, either because they've sold them in preparation for summer or because they took them off their websites so they could take them to events to sell. Any thoughts? I've got my eye on a couple of iffy/earlier specimens that will do all right, but I'd rather get a decent one for the period.
Lately I've been listening at work to the podcast You Must Remember This, which is about the first century of Hollywood (skipping the stuff about the 1970s-1990s) - definitely recommend! Today I also looked into Employee of the Month, just for the recent Tituss Burgess (the best one tbqh), Jon Hamm, and Patti LuPone interviews, which were great. And started listening to Code Switch. I never really poked around the podcast section of iTunes before: I thought I didn't like them, but I guess I just didn't find ones on subjects I was interested in.
While walking the pokemans this evening down on the Heritage Island Trail, I passed a guy going the other way, and was like whoa, because he was way better looking than the other adult guys I've seen playing without a wife/girlfriend and totally my type (clean, dressed reasonably well, about as fit as me). And then I ended up a dozen yards behind him when we were leaving the island. He split off and went down a side street while I went straight up Main St. to the park. Eventually I saw him at the park as well, standing at the corner and waiting to cross to the movie theater side of the street. Walking toward him, I fantasized about catching up and him being like, "hey, it's you again! I'm going to see Ghostbusters, which I'm excited and not at all whiny about, want to come along?" and then we'd go see Ghostbusters together and it would be great and super-chill. But the light changed and he was going in the theater by the time I got to the corner. WE'LL ALWAYS HAVE HERITAGE ISLAND. Anyway. The park is full of nerds playing Pokemon Go every night so maybe we'll just keep running into each other, have a meet cute, and ... eventually get married, that sounds about right.
