this was a good week
This was a good week! Here’s why:
• Alex participated in Model Montessori United Nations in New York City (her second year!), I bought a new (to me) car to replace the 15-year-old one my dad sold me for a dollar after we lost our cars in Hurricane Harvey (he wouldn’t let me pay him any more, despite my protests, and when I paid him, he promptly gave the dollar to Alex), and the orchid Marcus bought me last week is in full bloom.
• This amazing Ghanaian photographer shoots his intensely-coloured images with an iPhone. What?
• This underwater restaurant in Norway looks mesmerizing (and vaguely terrifying). Still want to visit it one day, though.
• Love this amazing Olympic story.
• This giant new Chinese library is both overwhelming and breathtaking. Wow!
• And in Vietnam, this photographer stands on bridges and photographs street vendors below. Gorgeous.
• And finally, for today’s soundtrack, Dontcha from The Internet. This song popped up while I was working this week, and I love that it sort of has an 80s Hall-and-Oates vibe.

Have a wonderful weekend, friends. See you next week.
