’tis not the season

Posted on July 30, 2013 by beth

as i teacher, i enjoy spending time in the summer walking outside and have noticed that the great majority of people sharing the streets with me are off-seasonal workers. what an interesting bunch of characters we are. street performers, tax guys, mall santas, elves, reindeer, grinch, children, dogs, fellow teachers, train hoppers, sumos?. these are my people.

I think the Violin Monster is a good act and he could make some serious dough taking his act elsewhere. That said, I’m getting sick and tired of seeing him everywhere… I’m probably the only person in A2 who feels that way, though..

such a diverse little bunch – being winter still and comfort eating in the cold I look like one of those sumo suited people! 🙂

The jogging sumos running off their sushi takes the prize, in my opinion… couldn’t this be inserted into a ‘get fit’ poster or something? Thanks for the great pics

You have some crazy photos here, I could never guess or find you! I like the way Christmas can go in so many humorous (and serious, too) ways! Funny how you concentrated on Men!! Smile! My photos would include more of them, too. (I just use words to illustrate now but someday may master the art of scanning and placing pictures on my blog!) A little late, but ho ho ho!!
