I’m not really that into birthdays, but if I know someone is, I’ll try to do a little something. Thinking about Legos again. I really do love Lego City sets. There’s a Burger King near me that I feel may be one of the most beautiful in the world. I really would love a little kit or Lego set so I can build a small replica. They recently took down the lights they had on it for the holidays and I miss them a little. Very beautiful. I don’t really like Burger King in America, but I truly feel some sort of connection and appreciation for this beautiful fast food establishment. It’s actually a fairly new building. It used to be a nice-looking Burger King. I’m not sure why they remodeled, I don’t think there was a fire or anything, but maybe I’m wrong. It’s a little surprising that they would rebuild it in a similar way, yet much nicer. There are some nice angles and it’s just like a taller building than you’d expect. It’s right on a highway, so the building itself serves as the advertisement I guess. I truly appreciate it almost every time I drive past it. I feel like maybe I should make my own little model kit to put together and gift it to them to display. I’m kidding, but that would be kinda funny LOL. I’m not sure why I felt compelled to tell you all about this BK, but it is a part of my life and I guess that’s what I share with you all. A little at a time. Small tidbits you could piece together if you were bored. Sometimes random posts like this one will reinforce that I’m a bit strange and they’re more to me than just being sad about life and the world! Sometimes I appreciate a good building. I love history, so historic buildings certainly have a little place in my heart, but there’s something about building a Burger King to be beautiful. You don’t see beautiful things being made for the lower classes these days. Maybe I’m overexaggerating by using the term, “beautiful” for this, but it’s just how I feel about it. In a time where I’ve felt we’re headed towards new constructions that would make a Russian question whether they’re in Stalingrad or a U.S. suburb, it’s just nice to see something made better than it has to be. In a similar vein, I appreciate and crave patient, deliberate, and detailed craftsmanship. It’s out there, but it doesn’t scale, so it doesn’t make people rich, so it will remain elusive. I hope I’m wrong.
