    We finished the chair in time to take it in with us today, when we visited lil’ Piper. She fit in it perfectly. Unfortunately, she was in a really grouchy mood the whole time that we were there, today. I think that she was trying to fall asleep, when we arrived. So, to her, our…

    I think that I’m going to start evaluating my running on a weekly basis, assigning a letter grade each Friday. I came up with that idea, because this week I earned an F-. It is only Friday, but I can already make that assessment, since today was my first run, since last Friday. So, from…

    I was thinking it would be fun to get some full moon shots, last night when I was watching it rise through the window. Not much later, I saw a shot on Gothamist that was taken at 5:45 in the morning, that looked pretty cool. It made me want to copycat, and shoot one in…

    Ok, obviously this project isn’t so secret, if there is a movie about it on the interwebz. One of our good friends painted a little chair for Piper, not too long ago. It is really cute, and Piper likes to sit on it. But she hasn’t quite grown into it yet (i.e. her feet don’t…

    G. Love and Special Sauce is another one of my favs from back in the day, that continues to produce. This track is from “Lemonade” featuring Tristan Perryman. I thought about doing “Rhyme for the Summertime,” but it has been raining for 3 days. So, I opted with “Beautiful.” Check it. (Photo: not sure who…

    Reagan said that she had to help Piper with the spelling on “Rgyeedddfhhmyymlehykjh.” Pretty impressive, just the same.

    We had a pretty great visit with Piper on Sunday morning. Some of our friends, and Piper’s friends came to hang out. Piper was all dressed up cute and had her hair done, when we arrived. She was in a great mood and ready to play. It is so fun to watch her interact with…

    It was a beautiful day to be in New York, Saturday.  The weather was absolutely perfect. Reagan and I headed upstate early with some of our friends, to climb at this place that we discovered last year. It was Reagan’s first time climbing outside of a gym. She put on a very impressive display of…

    Even though I should have spent the evening picking up trash, planting trees and rescuing puppies, I went to a party, instead. I mentioned earlier this week about my friend Zach’s connex with Kiehl’s. Well, unfortunately Jeff Koons and Pharrell didn’t make it out to the party. But it was still a really good time. …

    Thursday afternoon, I decided to stop by the Mural the Shepard Fairey is working on, in the East Village. I had originally wanted to go by on Wednesday, but it ended up raining like crazy. Today worked out well, though. I was on my way through the neighborhood, anyway, for the Earth Day party at…
