Roosevelt Ave. (1942–45). Hot pedestrian lifting his shirt and showing off his abdomen and his underwear waistband, but I didn’t have my camera ready. Pasta salad, a Turkey sandwich and discount hot dogs from Ass’d/কাওরান (05:18) where my smartphone ran out of power and where one of the handsome workers named میجان‎‎ was sweeping near me and then repeatedly said “Good morning” at checkout. “$99¢” sign (1942). Cucumber incense holder (1943). Fruit bowl, mixed cheese and whitefish salad from FD/FS/🔑F (05:31). Display of “face carving pumpkins” (1944–45).

34th Ave. (1946-52). Rainy JH G’market (1948–52). What looked from behind like a gorgeous man was bending over and showing me plenty of underwear material but whom I could only document photographically when he began to stand back up (1952).

EHSQ at the Garden Sch., 79th St. I was quite late from doing NYBD tasks and waiting for my smartphone to finish recharging. (See text messages with Chuck.) Another episode of no one but תאומא and me. He told me about his troubles in the past week trying to pay for the Web site hosting.

JH G’market, 78th St. (1953). 77th St. and 35th Ave. (1954–55).

37th Ave. Discount pumpkin loaf cake (for NYBD) and small individual peach and pecan pies (for myself) from FD (13:23). Quite handsome man at whom I wolf‐whistled let me go ahead of him on line, and I should have chatted him up and photographed him but did neither, though I did thank him again when I left.

Man carrying laundry bag on 72nd St. (1956).

37th Ave. (1957–65). دیوالی मेला in passing (1957). Saw أحمد through the window of KLD as he seemed to notice me in my dinosaur mask. NYBD at QPH (1958–65). (See canary notes.) Krampus (1958). Ceiling (1959).
