1. Saw some pretty amazing things at Brooklyn Flea this weekend (case in point: this ridiculous pinball machine from like the 1600s). But I love how looking through old vintage items on a sunny afternoon can make you develop completely new ideas about who you are as a person. For instance, I now think of myself as someone who not only knows what a Super 8 camera is (you see before this magic flea market visit I was not such a person), but also someone who knows what the hell to even do with a Super 8 camera once it is in her possesion. Amazing what $40 and a little positive self reflection will do. Also, if anyone happens to have an official users manual for a Super 8 camera lying around, we should do lunch or something. Please.

This blog is a series of short thoughts and essays named after my beta fish who sometimes has digestion problems that screw up his equilibrium in the water and cause him to float sideways at the top of his bowl, making me think that he's dead. But that's not what the blurbs are about, the blurbs are funny. Or something.
