Yesterday, the single banana was bequeathed to my coworker (who is also the owner of the lovely ring/extra hand you see in this photo). In the interest of scientific experimentation, she placed the lone banana on top of a Magic 8 Ball next to her window, where the banana can soak up the sun's ripening rays. Is the sun truly going to make our lone banana ripen faster? Is my coworker turning the banana over at midday so both sides receive even sun? And what role is the wild card Magic 8 Ball going to play? Cannot predict now.
As for our stalwart twins, they remain next to my desk in a continuing state of unripe/possibly rotting. The green has retreated to the tip and tail of each banana, but all that glitters is not gold for these fruits: their yellow sheen is broken by dull brown patches that imply bruising. O damaged bananas, O tropical fruits, the time to eat you creeps closer, ever closer. I hope you are delicious.

Are you wearing the same shirt today as you were yesterday? Shocking!
Today's shirt is a v-neck, yesterday's was a crewneck. They are both a vibrant red to celebrate...vibrant redness.
