Macy's Sunday Morning

I am sitting at Macy's this morning. They have an internet connection here that allows me to post to my blog and send e-mails and stuff like that. It is kind of neat - until my battery runs out.

It is a regular "fern bar" type of place rich in that "open butthole" atmosphere. I will leave it to the reader to interpret the analogies to their liking or disliking - whatever the case may be. On Saturday and Sunday mornings it is the "happenin'" place to be. When school is in, students from the local college are here with their laptops, yuppies and yuppy families show up on bicycles or in their landrovers or hummers. In the winter this is a stopping off point for that totally organic, hormone free, msg free asperagus tofu brownie.

I guess what really pisses me off is that the coffee really is good and the all organic vegan pastries are really good. This of course make them suspect as to whether they really are organic and vegan. They sell art here primarily photographs taken by one of the owners. The photographs are politically charged "staged or contrived" pictures which don't particularly appeal to me. I like natural and/or candid photos. Anyway that is Macy's.

I took a two week course on how to eat vegan. We ate like that for about 2 years. But then it got to be too much work. Having to fix all the ingredients before you can fix your meal was a pain.
