On Tuesday, I took beer bottles and cartons — I took some things to the recycling center, and I snapped a couple of pictures of doors. Yay, me!
Hard Hats Required in This Area.

On the other side of that door.

Then I went to Butt’s, which is what we call Butt Drugs around here. Yes, Butt Drugs. Yes, that Butt Drugs. Yes, it’s actually my actual pharmacy and the people you see here are actually people I know, knew, work with, and/or see/saw around. I’m sorry to say that Scotty, the guy in the arm sling, passed.
ANYWAY, while I was outside, I took a picture of this door. Not a very exciting door, but I like the flowerdy decoration on the glass.

December 17, 2020 at 5:20pmI like the food at Top Notch. It reminds me of very old doors to city buildings. I remember Butts. I thought it was cool when you described once a while back.
Marian Allen
December 18, 2020 at 9:06amYeah, I did a whole tour, didn’t I? Back before their new campaign for the Butt Drugs liquor selection: Bottoms Up.

December 18, 2020 at 9:12amPS, I guess you understood me despite the food/door typo.

December 17, 2020 at 12:54pmDoors around here have so little character. They’re mostly just…doors. Yours are fun. Is there a safety shower in that building? Seems unlikely, but possible! LOL
Marian Allen
December 17, 2020 at 1:42pmI haven’t explored, and I probably won’t. I’ve been watching Supernatural, and sketchy buildings are high on my list of places I don’t want to go.
Holly Jahangiri
December 17, 2020 at 2:24pmRight? Weirdly, they’re probably the most interesting doors we’ve got around here. Little portals to hell. So, Supernatural’s good? I haven’t started that one, yet. I’ve been reading in the supernatural genre, though, and oh has that been an entertaining romp! Hadn’t really read about vampires, witches, or ghosts in over a decade, I think. Such fun, to read fiction and not have to take it seriously. I have not been in a mood for great literature, and now that I’ve embraced that truth, reading is a pure pleasure. I’m too old and self-confident even to call it a “guilty” pleasure.

December 18, 2020 at 9:04amI’ll be honest: I’m watching Supernatural for Crowley, The King of Hell, played by Mark Sheppard. He was Badger in two episodes of my beloved FIREFLY. I went on IMDB and got a list of the episodes of Supernatural he was in and I’m watching all of those. Once his run on the show is over, I’m not sure I’ll watch any more. That’s killing a friend of mine, who loves Supernatural the way I love Firefly. #SorryNotSorry, but Crowley is my imaginary Crossroads Demon boyfriend.

December 18, 2020 at 5:07pmLOL I get it, but the lack of continuity might drive me nuts. Then again, it apparently sucks to watch a show with a writer. We can blurt out spoilers for stories we’ve never seen.
Marian Allen
December 19, 2020 at 10:02amThe lack of continuity would drive me nuts if I gave a rat’s ass about the story arcs. It’s a show with at least one brutal fistfight every episode and usually at least one fatal stabbing, and that’s by the good guys. Bad guys tear throats and burn eyeballs and pull hearts out of bodies like supernatural Bruce Lees. Not my thing. I was only ever watching it for Mark Sheppard (Crowley), so I’ve been following HIS continuity. King o’ Hell FTW!
