Day 224: I love my neighbors' Swedish cum

DAY 224: People in my building have this habit of leaving things out for others to take. They leave these things on the nice table across from the elevator on my floor – this table is there for decoration, it has flowers on it, a nice painting above it and now, thanks to the charitable residents in my condominium a plethora of free goods – old beaten up romance novels, read copies of Variety, lamps from 1970 that probably don’t work, Jell-O, old clothes, empty boxes, dishes that have seen better days…it gets me quite upset because I mean, it’s dangerous to leave this stuff out here - myself and the other residents often end up in a hallway brawl over who gets the holey t-shirt with the special yellow armpit stains. Really…these people should think of others before tempting them with their treasures.  Optimistic spin:  Maybe I can find some items to give my mom for her birthday - she loves Jell-O. 

I haven’t much else today, but I will leave you with some of MY treasures I’ve come across lately:

Swedish Christmas

Apparently this is a Christmas greeting from a Swedish company:

I can’t find the translation for the lovely title – it either means cum in love or I love cum…you pick…but this is the translation for the rest:

"We want to allow as many trees as possible to live - even after Christmas. In order to reduce to paper, we have this year opted not to send out any Christmas cards. Instead, we want these lines to wish all our customers, suppliers and other stakeholders a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!"

I think I love cum is the more appropriate title.

Religious Soliciting
This was a couple months ago, I was people watching on 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica, CA.

Some of these mormons (?) were singing while others were passing out literature…I don’t why I found it amusing. Maybe because it was a weekday at about 3 pm, maybe because they were soliciting members in Santa Monica on a street filled of ungrateful rich teenagers and clueless tourists…not sure, but it warranted a picture. Sorry if I didn’t give it justice, but it made my 2 minutes that day.
