This morning included a small adventure called “Where can I get film developed?” The brand new Walgreens on the corner of Sheridan and Irving Park does not have that capability. BUT Broadway and Waveland does. I struck up a conversation with the woman working behind the counter, and she told me that I might be surprised to know that a lot of people still get film developed. She is busy most days with film. I did find that surprising. And then when she asked me if I wanted singles or doubles, I balked. The choice of sIngle or double prints is something that had totally left my brain (and I used to have a job running one of those photo machines). Why doubles of course!
The pictures were ready for pick up by the time I got off work today, so I got them and eagerly came home to take a look. It was better than I had expected. My coworkers and I managed to take some cute pictures even though we couldn’t double check how we looked! I think I was the worst at actually taking the pictures. A few of them even feature my thumb…
Now the irony of this is not lost on me, but below please find some pictures–that I had to take with my iPhone–of the best pictures in the bunch. I can’t wait to share these with the people in them. See, that’s why you get doubles.
year of fun
