Chris stopped by on his way home from Astoria this morning and we headed over to Life for brunch. We got talking about water towers. 'They are towers after all,' I said. 'I'm not sure what it is about towers that appeals to me. I don't think it's their phallic nature.' Something about the mythology. The Tower of Babel. The striving towards godhood. It's all tied up with Prometheus, and Lucifer, and the tree of knowledge. I guess that sort of answers my own question. Myth. It often comes back to myth.
Kate.S had a joint birthday party with her friend Stirling way uptown (...th Street in Manhattan) tonight. It wasn't' the most exciting of nights, but they did have a vegan cake.
