Funny that these are the rooms they chose to photgraph.

They have a game room up here, and an exercise room, but that may not be particularly attractive to a new buyer. 
Tumblr media
The grounds are lovely.
Tumblr media
Look at the round windows.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Can’t understand why, when a home is priced in the millions, they have the least amount of photos.

I did cave and buy myself my seasonal naughty indulgence. I could not go back to being a regular smoker even if I wanted to because it’s like $18 in New York these days and I remember when a pack of 27s cost me eight bucks at the CVS in Bronxville. Now drugstores don’t even sell them. Offensive to pay that much money and jump through so many hoops just to die faster. You used to be able to buy them at the bookstore at Purchase College! Now I think it’s a “smoke-free” campus which is hilarious because the running joke was always Smoker’s University of New York and that was where I picked up the habit in the first place. Mostly thanks to Adam, because he would have to finish his before we went inside somewhere, and I felt weird just standing around doing nothing. So I elected to join him. This was my brilliant 18-year-old logic.

Don DeLillo wrote White Noise in 1983–84 in Bronxville, New York. Today the posh "bedroom community" is famous as the home of NFL kingpin Roger Goodell. Bronxville is also where humanity formally surrendered to the sports utility vehicle. Bronxville's "public face" on 31 December 2022 is mostly parking lots, acres of gray. DeLillo said this would happen. He said many other things about America, mostly with unnerving accuracy.
White Noise might not be "unfilmable." But we will never know it if this important book — read White Noise alongside DeLillo's Mao II (1991) — is entrusted to movie directors whose technical incompetence is matched only by their self-satisfaction. Noah Baumbach's insipid, play-stagey White Noise isn't even a cartoon of what might have been. The oversharing trailer is all you need to know. At least you are not confused, American.

The Strings of My Heart [35] - Bad Decisions
← Chapter 34 | Chapter 36 →
Pairing: Zoro x Jupiter
Genre: fluff, angst, f2l
Word Count: 2.5k
Warnings: brief mention of the sex talk? Like very brief
Summary: Zoro’s moved to sunny California for college to escape from the life of fame for a little while. But when he loses his violin case in the second week of school, he’s sure his college experience has just gone up in flames. What will he do when, despite all odds, his case is returned to him?
Tumblr media
Jupiter crawled into bed on Sunday night hoping the night wouldn’t end.  Zoro was moving into his new apartment the next day, and this was the last time they’d share a bed for the foreseeable future.  He cuddled up behind her after she was situated in the bed.
“Hi there.”
She patted his hands around her waist. “Hi.”
“I’m gonna miss you.”
She laughed. “Well, you can always stay the night if you want to.”
“That’s true,” he hummed. “It just won’t be the same.”
“Hey, I’m not forcing you to move out.  You can totally stay if you like.  Mom doesn’t care and neither do I.”
He sighed. “I know.”
The next afternoon came all too soon, and Zoro was packing up his car so he could take everything over to his apartment.
Quite a few of the kids volunteered to help him pack up his stuff.  He wasn’t very keen on them touching all of it, but most of it wasn’t breakable, so he let them help with that stuff.
It was only when he got to his apartment that night that he realized how much he was going to hate this, though.  Sure, the apartment was nice.  He had a nice, nice closet to himself.  There was a cute little kitchen, and the bedroom was even nicer than the one he’d had in California.  It was just…empty.  Was this how Jupiter had felt when he’d gone home last summer? 
He brought a few of his boxes in.  Quite a few of them had stayed in the back of his car when he’d moved in with Jupiter because there had been no room for all of it in her room.  There were many pictures he pulled out.  The one of him and his parents when he’d been a year old, the one of him and Jinsu and their plant, and the one of the six of them on Hyeon’s sixteenth birthday.  There were others, too.  The picture of him holding Noah when he’d been born, a photo from one Christmas they’d spent down in Geochang with his aunt’s family – it had just been him, Hyeon, and Jiho then.  There was another picture from when he’d gone to Australia with Namu’s family, and one from the last time his family had gotten together with Cyan’s.  the only photo that wasn’t in this particular box was the one taken in January.  It had been from Zoro’s birthday, and he’d taken a picture with Noah, Bella, and Aurora.
All of the photos went up around the apartment.  Even that little detail made it feel a bit more like home.  He flopped out on the bed and stared at the ceiling after that.  He missed Jupiter already.  Had moving out been stupid?  He felt so empty in this place.  There wouldn’t be any little kid crawling into bed with him tonight, and he wouldn’t get to sleep next to Jupiter.  He’d have to wake up in the morning and get ready for the day without anyone bothering him.  Of course, after all this, he’d be heading straight to Jupiter’s to get Bella ready for school.  Something about it all just felt…empty.
He hadn’t unpacked the rest of his car that night, instead falling into a restless sleep.
◇◆◇◆◇
The school year was nearing its end when Zoro got a call from Peyton.  Zoro hadn’t heard from him in a while, so he assumed something was going on.
“I’ve got news!”
“Really?” Zoro asked. “What’s the news?”
“My mom got the house and I’m moving in with my dad.  He moved to Wakefield, New York.”
Zoro laughed. “You’re kidding.  That’s fifteen minutes from here.”
Peyton gasped. “Really?  It’s that close?”
“Yeah!  We live in Bronxville.”
“Whoa, that’s awesome!  We’ll have to hang out when I move there, then!”
Zoro chuckled.  He had always found it kind of funny that Peyton actually enjoyed hanging out with him.  Zoro was four years older than him, and that seemed like quite a big age gap at sixteen and twenty, especially for two people who had never known each other before, but as far as Peyton was concerned, Zoro was one of the coolest people on the planet.
As it turned out, Peyton was entirely serious about getting together, and he ended up at Jupiter’s house for dinner a week after he’d arrived in New York.
Stella, for one, was completely giddy to have a boy around her age in the house, even if it wasn’t a boy she knew.  She was on the edge of her seat during dinner when he was talking about California, and she followed him around like a little puppy dog for the rest of the night.
“I’m thinking Stella likes your friend,” Jupiter murmured as she and Zoro cleaned up the kitchen that evening.
Zoro chuckled. “Does she?”
“Oh, yeah.  She’s giving him the star eyes.”
“Well, I don’t see anything wrong with it.”
“She’s fourteen.  She doesn’t need a boyfriend.”
“Who said anything about a boyfriend?” he laughed. “They’ve only just met.”
She shrugged. “I don’t know.  I just…don’t want anything happening.”
“How about you talk to her then?”
Jupiter leaned against the counter. “What would I say to her?  I mean, it would be a bit hypocritical to tell her not to date yet, don’t you think?”
Zoro raised an eyebrow. “How so?”
“Well, I have a boyfriend.  And we shared a room for a long while.  We didn’t do anything, but there’s no way she could know that for sure.  She’d have plenty of reasons to point out the flaws in what I have to say.”
Zoro scrunched his nose. “I mean, you are six years older than her.  You weren’t dating at her age, were you?”
Jupiter shook her head. “I wasn’t.”
“I don’t really see the problem here.”
Jupiter sighed. “Well, I know my mom hasn’t had the whole,” she dropped her voice, “sex talk with her because she didn’t have it with me, and that means that I need to have it with her.  And I…don’t really want to.”
He nodded. “I see.” He laughed awkwardly. “I can’t really blame you.  I’ve never talked about it with my siblings, not even Hyeon, so I can see how it would be uncomfortable.  Is there a way you could lead into it that would make it less awkward?  Like, I don’t know, just talking about boys first?”
“Maybe?” Jupiter shrugged. “I can try.  I just…I don’t want to make things weird between us.  We were never particularly close, so we’ve never really talked about anything like that.  She didn’t even know about you until you showed up here with me.”
“Hmm.” Zoro was still drying a dish that was beyond dry at this point, completely lost in thought trying to come up with some way to make this whole predicament easier.
“Do you think Peyton would tell you if he liked my sister?”
Zoro laughed. “Oh, yeah.  He volunteers all sorts of information I didn’t ask for.  It’s harder to get him to keep it to himself, honestly.”
“Maybe I should wait to do something about it until he mentions it to you?”
Zoro shrugged. “It’s up to you.”
◇◆◇◆◇
Cyan nearly dropped his phone after walking into the café.  Working the register was the cutest girl he’d ever seen.  Something about her seemed familiar.  Maybe it was her long, thick, wavy hair that was pulled up in a ponytail, but he couldn’t be sure.  He just knew he’d seen her somewhere.
He didn’t have time to mull over it, though.  He had ten minutes to get his coffee and sprint back down the street to the hospital.  This was one of the downsides of being a nurse on season and off season.  He was always busy.  Busy, as in working.  At least he had more time to breathe than he had had during school.  Trying to balance his internship with homework had been absolutely awful.
He took one last glance at the girl before he left the café, and this time, she was looking at him.  Her nametag was reflecting the light into his eyes, but still, he could tell what it read.  Esther.  What a nice name.
It wasn’t until he got back to his apartment at ten that night that it hit him what this feeling was.  Was this what people were talking about when they said they had a crush?  Was this what Zoro had felt for Jupiter when they’d first met?  It was an anomaly to Cyan.  He’d never liked anyone like this.  He’d been friends with plenty of boys and girls alike, but he’d never felt like this.  This feeling was akin to being smacked over the head with a textbook.  A big, thick textbook with the entire curriculum for rocket science.  He had to call Zoro.
◇◆◇◆◇
Zoro’s phone was ringing that special chime that told him Cyan was calling.  It was a rare night.  Cyan barely ever had time to text, let alone call.  Zoro picked up his phone and answered it.
“Hel-”
“I think I saw the prettiest woman on the planet today.”
The line was silent for a moment as Zoro took in what he’d just heard.  He snorted.
“I’m sorry, I think I have the wrong number.  Is this Cyan?”
“Zoro!  You should be able to recognize my voice over the phone after ten years of phone calls,” Cyan whined.
Zoro chuckled. “I just never thought you’d like anyone.”
“…well, I dunno.  She’s different.”
“Oh, really?  What about her?”
Cyan hummed. “Uh…I don’t know, honestly.”
There was a long pause.
“How did you feel when you liked Jupiter at first?”
“Um…” Zoro hummed. “That’s a good question, actually.  I’m not really sure.  I don’t know when our relationship changed from friendship to something else.”
“Really?”
“Yeah.  Why?”
“I don’t know.  This girl, she’s just…different.  Looking at her was like having an epiphany.  I’ve never felt anything like it before.  Did you feel that with Jupiter?”
“Um…no.”
“Really?” Cyan gasped. “Wow!  I would’ve thought this was totally the feeling you were talking about when you told me about her.”
Zoro grimaced. “Honestly, falling in love with her wasn’t something I realized was happening for months.  It was more of a progression than anything.  I mean, I was scared of her the first few times we met.  After that, I was more at ease with her, and then I started to get more nervous around her.  You know?  It was never just one constant feeling.  I suppose it’s a little different when you fall in love with your best friend, though.”
Cyan sighed. “I just don’t know what to do.  I saw her, and it was like this invisible string was tugging at me.  I wanted to talk to her.  I didn’t get to, because she was working the other register…but.” He groaned. “I don’t know!  I don’t know what that feeling was!  It was so weird!”
“Well, that’s not love, that’s for sure.  Love is like…you’d do anything for them, even if it’s something that hurts you.”
“If that’s the case, it definitely wasn’t love.  Honestly, it was more of a sense of déjà vu.  Like I knew her, but I couldn’t put my finger on where I knew her from.  And when I saw her nametag, there isn’t a single person I’ve known with that name.”
“What was her name?”
“Esther.”
“That doesn’t ring a bell for me, either.”
“I don’t know.  It was so odd.  The whole thing was.  I’ve never felt anything like that, especially not for someone I don’t know.”
Both of them were silent as they thought about it.
“Are you sure you don’t know her?” Zoro asked. “It sounds like she was someone you used to know, and you just can’t remember her because she looks different now.”
“I’ve never known anyone named Esther, though!”
“Maybe she changed her name?”
“…maybe?  But even so, there’s not a single place I can remember her face from.” He laughed. “I don’ t know.  It was nice to talk to you, though.  Work has been absolutely insane.  How have you been?”
“Um, I’m all right.  I got my own apartment two months ago, and to be honest…I’m hating it so much.  It’s like this place is a black hole.  There’s nothing here.  It’s even worse when I moved into my apartment in LA, which seems weird, because I was completely alone then.  At least here I get to see Jupiter and the kids every day.”
“Maybe that’s why it feels worse.  You know that they’re so close, but you still don’t get to spend the night with them?”
Zoro sighed. “I don’t know.  It sucks, but Jupiter and I sharing a bed was starting to get complicated.  And…we’re not even close to getting married.  We have so much else going on right now that we barely even talk about it anymore.  All the kids are out of school now, but even so, I feel like we’re constantly on the move.  The boys had baseball, Stella has dance, Venus and Bella have soccer…and Jupiter’s been working insane hours recently because of seasonal changes.  Sometimes I get back to my apartment at ten because I didn’t want to leave the kids at home without her that late.”
“Is there no one who can help you?”
Zoro winced. “Not really.  Our babysitter who was helping us last fall and this spring just got married, so I feel like it’s a bit rude to ask her to come watch the kids, especially that late at night.”
“Ok, but what about during the day?  Do you need help taking the kids around town?”
“Maybe…I don’t know.  It wouldn’t be that much different with another person helping me.  Venus and Stella both have rides to their practices and classes, so that makes things a bit easier on me.  It’s mostly the getting up early so I can get ready and coming home and still having to get ready for bed thing that’s the problem.”
“Can you not stay the nights on the days Jupiter’s gone late?”
“That’s…an idea.  It’s just hard to balance all of that and work.”
“You’re still working?” Cyan gasped. “After all of that?”
“I have to.  My apartment won’t pay for itself.”
“Zoro, I think you really need to move back into Jupiter’s house.”
Zoro sighed. “I’ll think about it, ok?”
“Zoro!  What is with you and tiring yourself out?  Did you do this while you were in university too?”
“I didn’t even know Jupiter’s siblings then.”
“You know what I mean!  Packing your schedule full to the point that you barely have time to sleep?”
Zoro grimaced. “I mean…”
“You did?”
“Hey!  Ok now wait a minute.  Didn’t you just get home from work?  What is it for you?  Ten?  And what time did you go in today?”
“Ten…this morning.”
“Why are you telling me to stop cramming my schedule then?”
“Hey, I won’t graduate on time if I don’t get all of this in.”
They both sighed.
“I’m not cutting down unless you do,” Zoro said suddenly.
“…I’ll think about it.”

November 6th, 1941 - Joan, aged 5, and her sister Candace, 3, are featured in the ‘our album’ section of the Bronxville Review-Press newspaper. 
Here is the original caption: ‘Joan and Candace Bennett, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Wiggins Bennett Jr., of 8 Midland Gardens (Bronxville, NY). Joan is 5 and goes to kindergarten while Candace is 3 and very anxious for the day when she can go to kindergarten too. The Bennetts moved to the village from New York City two years ago and plan to have their pretty young daughters go to school here’. 
This is BY FAR the earliest photo of her I’ve got. I wish it was more HQ but oh well, the newspaper is very old. Joan was featured quite often in the Bronxville Press.

LOVE O’ MIKE
1916 - 1918
Tumblr media
Love O’ Mike is a musical comedy in two acts and a prologue by Jerome Kern (music), Harry Smith (lyrics), and a book credited to Thomas Sydney (a pseudonym for Augustus Thomas and Smith’s son Sydney) with additional lyrics by Herbert Reynolds. It was originally produced by Elizabeth Marbury and Lee Shubert, staged by J.H. Benrimo. The cast featured Lawrence Grossmith (Lord Michael Kildare), Allison Bain (Mrs. Marvin), George Hassell (Bif Jackson), Clifton Webb (Alonzo Bird), Vivian Wessell (Vivian), Luella Gear (Luella) and Peggy Wood (Peggy), among others.  
The musical was formerly titled Girls Will Be Girls. It was changed to avoid confusion with another musical of the same title. Love O’ Mike was one of the script’s original titles along with Strike the Lyre.  
The musical takes place at Mrs. Marvin’s home in Bronxville, New York. 
All the girls at Mrs. Marvin’s house party fall in love with Lord Michael Kildare (the Mike of the title), but he only has eyes for Vivian. The party is marred when the butler, a sometimes second-story man, steals one young lady’s money. Then Mike takes credit for rescuing people from a local tenement fire. His bravery further mars the fun of the male members of the party, who must endure watching their girls’ adulation of Mike run out of control. With the butler, the men plot a phony rescue to counter Mike’s claims of heroics. But the two-faced butler tells Mike and the girls of the plan. 
Under the title Girls Will Be Girls, the show premiered at Philadelphia’s Lyric Theatre on November 20, 1916. In January 1917 it played the Garrick in Detroit and the Alvin in Pittsburgh. 
“All the familiar conventions associated with musical plays have been swept aside in the production of ‘Love O' Mike.’ There is no chorus, but there is a cast of sixteen principals; the music helps to develop the story and there is a freshness and spontaneity about the individual performances that aid in the appeal of the entertainment.”  ~ COURIER-NEWS
Tumblr media
Love O’ Mike opened on Broadway at the Shubert Theatre (255 West 44th Street) on January 15, 1917. 
Tumblr media
About the Venue: The Shubert Theatre was built by Lee and J.J. Shubert as tribute to their brother Sam, who died in a train crash in 1905. It has rarely been dark since opening in 1913. It is the flagship theatre of the Shubert Organization. 
Tumblr media
"’Love O’ Mike' is an excellent musical comedy for a pair of beginners, but when that has been said there remains little else that may be stated its favor. With due consideration for their youth and Inexperience, the piece is still disappointing because they had such excellent advisers.” ~ NEW YORK HERALD
Tumblr media
The musical transferred to Maxine Elliott’s Theatre (109 West 39th Street) on March 19, 1917 and played there until June 30, 1917.  
Tumblr media
About the Venue: Lee Shubert sold actress Maxine Elliott the land for this theatre in exchange for fifty-percent interest in it - making Elliott one of the only female managers. It was leased to the Federal Theatre in 1936. In 1941, it became a radio station and, later, a television studio. In 1956, Elliott's heirs sold her share to the Shuberts, who then sold the property. It was demolished in 1960.
Tumblr media
After taking the summer months off, the musical re-opened on August 27, 1917 at the Casino Theatre (1404 Broadway at 39th Street). Laurence Grossmith was replaced by Max Leeds, but much of the original cast remained. This relaunch would technically be kicking off a new theatre season.  It played there until September 29, 1917. 
Tumblr media
About the Venue: Built for light musicals and operetta, the Casino showed mostly "polite vaudeville" starting in 1892. In 1903 the Shuberts acquired the lease. A 1905 a fire necessitated much reconstruction. In February of 1930, the theatre was demolished to make room for the expanding garment district. 
The total run over all three theatres was 233 performances. After Broadway, the play decamped to Newark before moving to Buffalo and Boston. 
The play toured extensively and eventually made its way to Atlantic City. 
Tumblr media
Love O’ Mike opened in Atlantic City on May 20, 1918 at B.F. Keith’s Garden Pier Theatre.  The tour finally wrapped up in June 1918, 19 months after its first performance in Philadelphia.
