New York Mothers Get Flowers












Walking around in Midtown today after church, it was easy to spot people with flowers probably taking them to their moms.

Colbert Signing


In front of the Bankstreet Bookstore on the upper west side there was this sign. 


It said 
STEPHEN
COLBERT
LINE FORMS
AROUND CORNER"

And here is what the line looked like:


Hilarious, right?

So I thought, "Hey, I've got a few minutes and since the line's that short, I'll go get his autograph." Turns out the line twisted around a stairwell and went upstairs and through another room. 


If it would have just been me, I would have waited, but I had the hubby with me, so we moved along. He made up for it by buying me two red devil cupcakes at Bloomies.



Skywriting




I spotted this skywriter yesterday as Paul and I were walking through Central Park. We wondered if the pilot was going to spell out a name. Then Paul suggested the pilot may have sold this to more than one customer. What a brilliant idea! The one being proposed to would never know it wasn't planned for him/her alone.
