Noir et Blanc

So... is there any way I can convince you that Kobe and I
matching was entirely unintentional? I taught him this trick
where he searches among his twenty-some-odd bandannas
and then picks out the one he "wants." The gem of this trick
is that he smells several different ones, making it appear 
as if he's truly contemplating which colour he wants to wear
that day (who knows, maybe he is)! All day I couldn't shake 
this feeling that Paul Rudd and Jason Segel would walk by me
and exclaim, "Look! See, that's a Bowser." 

On one of our excursions around the city, Paul and I came 

across this wall. You can understand my excitement, for I

love a good painted wall! This one is my favourite so far; 

the entire wall is done up with a set of Matryoshka dolls. 

And is this not the best background for a black and white

ensemble?! Before I move away I would like to do a post

featuring each doll, they're awesome!

Last night Paul and I watched a movie in a park. This park, 

an easy five minute walk away, has been hosting movies

on weekend nights all summer long. Situated in the heart

of downtown, surrounded by residential and business 

buildings, with traffic on every side, is located a little

square of green space. There are a few parks in Ottawa

that remind me of the Cremorne or Vauxhall Pleasure 

Gardens that are in London. Yesterday was the final 

movie of the season; I was ecstatic upon my discovery

that Dirty Dancing was scheduled to play! I haven't seen

it in years but in high school I swear I could recite all of 

Baby's lines. It was a lovely summer evening.
