On a walk from home to the 1369
Coming out of the post office this morning, I held the door for the man coming out behind me. He said something and I missed it, so I said something like, “What’s that?” He said, “Aren’t you beautiful?” It was odd—surprising, but not weird enough to be creepy. It was nice, and I said thank you. I don’t know if he meant that I was nice for opening the door or that he thought I was pretty, but either way it was good.
Walking down the street, I saw a cute little girl wearing orange corduroy bellbottoms. (It occurs to me that as a kid I might have hated those pants, but the orange was a nice color.)
I found my Charlie Card.
A bell was ringing as I walked through Harvard yard.
I saw a girl getting a ride from another girl on a sort of trolley/dolly.
Lots of Asian tourists were photographing the statue of John Harvard.
A kid at the 1369 kept blowing something through a straw at his mom and her friend.
Now the leaves on the tree outside my window are dancing in the sun. Happy Monday, everybody!

Well, that guy just recognized a beauty when he saw one!!!
I wanna have a day like that! Sigh…maybe this weekend?
And, yes, you are beautiful!
Shucks!!
You are a beauty. He recognized it and said so. Enjoy.
(Your mother taught you well.) Dad too. You have very good “Public Manners”. Love Ya, Mom
