8242 - Walkies on Sunday.

[scottobear]

Walkabout on Sunday was good, I got more color, but think I dodged the burn bullet again. The ball cap let my nose still get a little red, however.

I walked to Mizner Park, just to check out the place, and it's fared for the worse. I used to live behind there, and liked it a lot... but now, there are no bookstores.. (liberties is gone!), the international museum of cartoon art has been gutted, and the two cool wacky-weirdo art stores have been absorbed by other type stuff. bleh.

I'd hoped to go to my old hangout, Beany's, for a veggie-cheese sammich with the vinaigrette that I love so well... but sadly, it was closed, but just for Sundays.

I abandoned Boca's blandness, and retreated to the bus stop (I was too bushed to walk for a bit), and rode back to Hillsboro... and then crossed over to the 94 and hit the Deerfield mall. I stopped off for a breather at the movies... caught "The Hills Have Eyes" and was surprised. It was better than I thought. (Make no mistake, it is about mutants killing people trapped in an out-of-the-way location, but it was done well for what it was.) Afterward, I stopped off at EB and picked up a copy of counterstrike:source on sale. I'm looking forward to playing multi with hav and kev once I polish my skills a bit.

Roaming area, (note, some was done by bus. I walked about another 8 miles.)

I made a lot of use of autostitch today, clicking on the pictures makes them larger, as usual.

Pictures from walkabout -



unicorn and a 3-story tower of teacups! at the Boca museum 'f art.



Multi-colored turtle! I really liked this one, painted by a bunch of kids.



Walking away from Mizner park, looking for Boca comics. never found it.



Fine shoes... but what cost? YOUR SOUL??



Went to See "The Hills Have Eyes" - Surprisingly effective horror flick. done better than I was expecting.



Hand painted dolphin, with shells guled on for patterns. done by kids.



Another painted dolphin. groovy. :D



closed due to hurricane... 4-5 mos later??



The auditorium was setting up for a stage show of the big comfy couch. Not my loonette, some blond gal was doing a rehearsal while I was there. She had a good voice.

I went on a similar quest for an eggnog shake this year--I was wired for days after drinking it--I didn't remember them being THAT sweet and noggy!

[scottobear.livejournal.com]

I wonder if they're making things more sweet and flavorful than in past years, or if we're just getting all "fall of the house of usher" in our later years?

“Not taste it?—yes, I taste it, and have tasted it. Long—long—long—many minutes, many hours, many days, have I tasted it—yet I dared not—oh, pity me, miserable wretch that I am!—I dared not—I dared not speak! “You put your chocolate in my peanut butter!” Said I not that my senses were acute?

Madman! I tell you that she now is cukoo for cocoa puffs!!"

you know, the sugar-free baby reeses cups are pretty tasty.

almost overly-smooth texture.

"A valued McDonald's team member, of stealthy step, thence conducted me, in silence, through many dark and intricate passages in my progress to the drive thru window of his master, Ronald McDonald."

Sadly even though I'm a tour guide for his grave I've not gotten to read much of his stuff in the past few years--I want to re-read Fall of the Hous eof USher---simply becuas ei remember it scaring the bejeezus outta me when I was a kid.

Of course, one of my favorites is The Murders in the Rue Morgue. Best Sherlock holmes short story not starring sherlock holmes.

You know you're ready for the weather to change when you're jealous of someone else's sunburn!

C'mon summer! :)

BTW kudos for having Cannibals as a tag, any journal entry that references cannibals is alright by me.

The turtle was especially awesome. (but I'm partial to turtys)

Very smooth, with some odd textured areas. :D
