lol. Mine would have a Bulova Accutron, a Cartier tank watch, and one of those adorable marcasite hearts on a black silk cord

I remember about the borrowing.

Did the kid who got thrown out of the window actually die? from what I know of prep school architecture the buildings are not very tall

sure, but again, even in my childhood, Automats were a lost world

if I had to feed myself on the coins scooped out of a museum fountain the “2 for $2.22” breakfast plate at Brigham’s would have been the way to go (eggs, bacon, sausage, toast)

I mean, top choice would have been oceanside cave with a clutch of fire lizard eggs, but museum would have been great

different book! I would have LOVED to move into the Met (or the MFA, it being closer and all) but 1) alarm systems had been upgraded since Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler’s day and 2) no Automats

someone tell the taskmaster props people to throw away that fake war bonnet. they can't have people wearing that on teevee. unless they'd like me to believe that kerry godliman is a male crow nation chief who has distinguished himself through bravery and honor. in which case my apologies

reading it as a teen in the 80s what mostly struck me was how incredibly cool HIS NYC was and where was MY chance to skip school a f go skating and see a play and sneak into sophisticated nightclubs with ballroom dancing?

Anyone in Boston an immigration lawyer or know one who can help this woman? Her husband is detained at Logan over a dismissed misdemeanor from 2017. He’s a legal resident of the US. She just asked for help an hour ago.

speaking of naptime I should go make a cup of tea

back in the day the only time I would notice I’d had too much caffeine was after an extended Chinese restaurant meal where I’d probably consumed at least one full pot given how many times we had to signal for more

I mean I’m probably too old for them but if I’d gotten in the elevator on my way home from a goth club, even at my advanced age, or even dressed for summer heat…
