This was stuck to the bottom of my shoe at PS1.

Ari and I met up with Laimah and some of her friends to check out the WACK!: Art and the Feminist Revolution show. We went to a panel about art and activism, walked through the galleries and then ended up in the cafe downstairs.

That's when I felt something hard and sticky on the bottom of my shoe. As soon as I saw what it was, I figured it must have been on the floor in the bookstore, where I had been browsing. I pictured the stacks and the Theory section, somewhere in limbo, unlabeled, being consumed into other subjects.

So I turned around and walked straight back to the store and went up to the guy behind the little counter and handed it over. He took it from my hand, smiled, said thanks, and then tossed it straight into the trash. So I took it out of the trash and kept it.

HAPPY LEAP YEAR!!!!!
