Same Old... But So New.

Completed the wall demo today... bring on the dance parties :).

Turn your frown upside down...

Had a little arts and crafts party at work today... Mike and I couldn't exactly figure out how to work the button-maker.

Moving on up! To the window side.

After many months of "should I, shouldn't I?"... I finally moved my desk! It was quite the laborious project... but worth the view :).

Let's take a step back and enjoy the view.

I know, I know. I'm spoiled. Had a bit of time to kill, so I took the extra long way home and walked along the East River from the Seaport to 23rd st. Can't complain about living in NY :).

It's where the costs go

August 27, 2012 - Pic #240


Know what's awesome? Costco. Even better? Having a roommate that likes all the same stuff as you! We loaded up a cart and then a zipcar with food stuffs, bulk household items, beverages... you name it, we got it. We didn't exactly plan for hauling the loot from the car to the apartment, but luckily a nice neighbor helped us out. Felt very suburbran.

Wanna go for a bike ride? Only $2400! Went window shopping with Tali at ABC Home...

Mio Favorito

If you haven't been here, you're missing out. Artichoke Pizza has a couple of locations, but this hole in the wall is on 14th Street between 1st and 2nd Ave. Tara and I trekked downtown to pick up an air conditioner she bought on Craigslist, and couldn't resist this temptation. Also, they were apparently filming a TV special for The Food Network. Film equipment was strewn all over the street and the little shop, and crew members shuffled pedestrians around the sidewalk. Wonder when it will be on...

Thirsty?

Tara Pants went to San Antonio and brought back these. Best souvenirs ever. I shall only drink out of Edward.

You dirty rat.

RAT. Whenever I see one of these, I am immediately taken back to that horrible Spring 2006 semester at NYU when the grad students took over Washington Square Park with their woes. I was not a fan. This guy, however, was conveniently placed three feet from the Fulton Street subway stairs, blocking all traffic and frightening many commuters emerging from the tunnels. Well done!

Sometimes you just need a little color.

Ow.

Paid two cavities for avoiding the dentist for over a year. Not worth it!

Real or not real?

Sigh. If only this were real life, and the not The Game of Life.

I won't grow up!

Been AGES since I've been to see a Broadway show. Peter and the Star Catcher was a great welcome back. Definitely worth seeing!

I know how to clear a stadium

Icia's visiting! Obviously we got tickets to a Yanks game, which turned out to be quite soggy. Little did we know that a strong downpour is a great way to start a series against the Sox - 5 homers, and no one injured! Good game :).

Ho hum.

You'd think after 9 years of doing laundry in public laundry mats, I'd get used to it. But nope - and doing it in the middle of the week is that much worse.

Raindrops don't fall on MY head!

It was a super rainy day, but this pic was mostly an excuse to show off my super cute umbrella.

One day, I too will fly.

There is a Trapeze School set up near the Seaport. I was that creepy person taking pictures through the chain link...

Sometimes I feel extra stupid

I honestly don't know if this is a joke or not... they are all over the subway stations near Wall Street.

12:12 on the 12th - STRIKE!

Post babysitting? Midnight bowling with Sesi! We were both pretty terrible... but at least we got to pay a fortune for it!
