You will never guess who I ran into underneath the Canal Street subway entrance? Yes, I mean literally underneath. Only her arm and a box containing what was left of her body was left.

Some of you who who have followed this blog from the start will know who I mean. Yes, you got it the poor Verizon shop window pumpkin lady from the Halloween October 28th post. Please refer back if you did not see the post.

Then she had a head and sweet orange stripy stockings and shorts and a smile. Then she was in love with one of her customers. I never heard from her again and I feared the worst, she had been turned into soup or a slice of pumpkin cheesecake. I was walking onto the train the other night and I heard her calling my name. I looked down to see this sad little black box, like a box you might see after a plane crash. Well she had gone on the Calorie Restriction diet so as to increase her sex drive and attract a certain male customer with whom she was most enamoured. In those days she had slimmed down so much she only had a shelf to support her pumpkin head and no body. It is ridiculous the lengths we women go to to look sexy.

Three months later she slimmed down drastically again, now she was just a mere arm, yes it is a very elegant, sensual and slim arm, I agree, and I guess the rest of her is in this box , which she clearly labelled VERY SEXY. Actually it looks quite inviting to look inside.

I'm just learning to use a blog and glad i ran into your blog. The 10-15 min. i read and the pics i saw gave me a few ideas. never been to NYC but felt like i was there while reading the SP's travails and people-love glimpses. wow, hope the lady in the black box gets a saving Kiss on the Hand from the guy she dreams about. A diligent matchmaker -- the next greatest soul right up there with Good Samaritans! Check you out in a few and see whats up in the Big Apple.~alejandro aka, alex
