Random event I remembered, but I was invited to a yearly cartoonist holiday event in Brooklyn once, years ago. It had snowed the day before, so streets were still icy & I had on snow boots with heavy treads.
Got to the house & I said, oh yeah I should take off my shoes, right? -->

I genuinely really enjoy how I can sometimes hear random taiko practice from somewhere near my house (there's a Buddhist temple across the street from me, maybe there?)

I think the music and sounds here are what throw me off the most?
I went to a library around closing time and 15 minutes before, they started playing, I don't know how to describe it other than "get the fuck out" music. Started soft and got louder as it got nearer to closing. Freaking incredible.
