286/365. old fashioned music on the old fashioned ipod.

286/365. old fashioned music on the old fashioned ipod.

when i was packing for my trip odin noticed i grabbed my 5th generation nano ( which pretty much only gets used when i’m traveling to save space and battery life on my phone ) and he said simply and without any sense of irony, “oh, you’re taking your old fashioned iPod?”

oh, i get it, it’s all retro with it’s click wheel interface and no touchscreen or apps but “old fashioned” i mean c’mon…OH MY GOD “ON FIRE” CAME OUT 26 YEARS AGO.

285/365. the terminal that time forgot.

285/365. the terminal that time forgot.

or at least that’s the way it feels sitting in the low numbered gates of terminal b ( the american air terminal ) at dallas/fort worth international airport. any food or coffee is like a 10 minute walk along boarded up gates that i’m going to guess signals renovation but gives the vibe that it’s boarded up section of town. the monitors throwing exception codes only adds to the effect.

ahhh, wikipedia says the the gates are under construction.

282/365. literal and figurative stumbling on the strip.

282/365. literal and figurative stumbling on the strip.

out for a morning run in vegas and, oh hey, it’s the fabulous las vegas sign i think is required to be in any vegas movie even though, like most of the strip, the sign is not actually in vegas.

apropos of nothing, right before i stumbled upon the sign, i literally stumbled after hitting a funny patch of sidewalk. pretty good stop, drop and roll. nice technique but i’m sure i’ll feel it in the morning.

281/365. people ( and volcano ) watching on the vegas strip.

281/365. people ( and volcano ) watching on the vegas strip.

never been to vegas before. i don’t gamble, so i guess i’ll fill my time people watching on the strip. hey, there’s a “volcano” in front of in front of the mirage hotel. i think the volcano is a mirage thing, but treasure island hotel is in the background of this photo. maybe there’s some obvious relationship between the mirage and a fake volcano that i’m not getting?

it’s not even 10 local time and I think many people are not pacing themselves.
