The World Through Your Eyes

And then there’s here, where we got about 2-3 inches of heavy snow.

Well, this was a very light dusting indeed. I used to live up there in Buffalo, NY in the snowbelt, so I know what heavy snow means. I was right in the middle of that Snovember storm a few years ago…

Yeah, we had 3-4 inches of powder late last week. It was, sadly, pretty bad. I think it was because basically came down really fast.

I’m sure people drove nice and slow after your light dusting too.

Was hanging around a zoo until not very long ago.

This is about a 3 min drive from my house…

So I came across this lovely item whilst browsing:

I hope it comes with a miniature excavator.

Well that sucks.

YQMaoski · March 11, 2019, 4:53am

Oh no! I hope you have a back up…

I’ve got 6 other pillows but I generally use two at a time. That was a newer one though. Then again, it was also 4 dollars.

So even though it’s not quite as cold as it had been in previous months, spring is taking its sweet time getting here. To get to see most flowers, we still have to go to some indoor gardens. Here are a couple of pictures of our visit today:

Paige NO!

Pylinaer · March 21, 2019, 2:45am

These arrived today.

Are these $2 US bills in demand? I still have one somewhere.

YQMaoski · March 21, 2019, 6:49am

They are not too common, and some people collect them. I think I have one somewhere too…

Pylinaer · March 21, 2019, 3:00pm

I bought them off ebay. Approx $4 each including shipping.

Reason I got them is I still remember what happened to the $2 bill my parents gave me as a kid and I feel bad about it still.

Pylinaer · March 22, 2019, 1:29am

And now this arrived!

This is

BEAUTIFUL

I recently finally watched Miyazaki's Lupin The Third and I absolutely loved it! I've now watched all his featured films. One of my life goals is to go to the Ghibli museum* one day and watch his shorts.

Which movie of his is your favorite? Mine is Porco Rosso , for the beautiful flight scenes, Porco’s sense of righteousness and the overall message against extremism – and other things that would spoil it for everyone else.

Pylinaer · March 22, 2019, 2:04am

That is a really hard question actually. I would probably have to say Nausicaä and the Valley of the Wind.

Kiki’s Delivery Service was the movie that got me started with Studio Ghibli.

I’ve also yet to watch The Secret World of Arrietty, From Up on Poppy Hill, My Neighbor Totoro, The Wind Rises, and Lupin the Third.

Also need to rewatch Porco Rosso and The Cat Returns.
