I don’t know this girl, but I happened to be walking past as her friend was taking her picture with Mozart, and I just couldn’t resist taking one as well. Plus, there’s that dude in the red t-shirt checking out the whole affair, which is the cherry on top of this bizarre sundae.

Back in the summer of ‘05, I was oversees working on the film, Munich. Ironically, I got to visit several countries in Europe that year, but of course, not Germany. The closest I got was the daytrip I took to Vienna. I took the early morning train from Budapest and spent the day walking around, taking in the sights and sounds of the Austrian capital. Having studied German for two years in college, I was determined to use as little English as possible on the trip, which meant that it turned out to be a pretty quiet day.
I couldn’t help but snap a pic of this “small” cafe; an idyllic looking European cityscape if there ever was one. I also couldn’t help but patronize the cafe and order a refreshing Austrian lager (by pointing at the menu).

Introducing the newest member of the Garr/Suffern clan…Omar Little Suffern! His namesake is one of the greatest characters of all time, and our favorite – Omar Little – from the show The Wire. We adopted this little guy from the good folks at Wild and Tame, It’s All the Same, who rescued Omar from a kill shelter on the day he was supposed to have been exterminated. Apparently, he’s about a year old and is a mix of daschund, doxie and chihuahua, thus his “little” frame. We’ve had Omar for a few days now, and we’re absolutely in love with him (though I think our cat, Maya, is probably gonna need just a bit more time to adjust).

In terms of my grandfather, truer words were never spoken than…
“I’d rather be fishin’.”

My grandpa would have been 90 today. I so miss him, and I can only imagine what the world will look like if I’m lucky enough to live so long…
