Movies used to have amnesiacs all the time. In case you never saw one, what happens is, a person loses his or her memory, there’s pain and trouble, then memory is regained, with difficulty. This neon sign would be a perfect memory aid for someone just waking up, I though, assuming they were from the County of Kings.

Another day, another neighborhood, another dusk. People are heading home; the light is both diffuse and sharp. For a few minutes, the sky is a gorgeous blue.

The stuff at Beacon’s Closet is a little used, but mostly on the cool side, and who can argue with a pink plastic tree? The store has three locations: Park Slope, Williamsburg, and Manhattan. I like the one that’s convenient.

Now I know the neighborhood is going yuppie. The cab company on Fourth Avenue that used to park the cars so pedestrians had to walk five feet in the street is being orderly with its vehicles.

I don’t care much for the store, but I like the window: paper, light, string, snow, and some shadows.

And the trash is still sitting around. Next year let’s not invite the sloppy, drooling pumpkin.
