No, we didn’t run the race (this year), but if you read Reagan’s blob, then you probably know that we volunteered this year at the NYC Marathon. We were both chip clippers (the people who cut the timing chip from the runners’ laces at the finish line). This is the last year that people will … Continue reading NYC Marathon→
10. Go early to buy as much dry ice as you can, before everywhere is sold out.
9. While you are at it, load up on eggs.
8. Write the name and telephone number of your defense attorney on the back of your hand, with a sharpie.
7. Sequins are always in, on Halloween. Better find a way [...]
On the train this morning I saw some kids dressed up like freaks, on their way to school. It made me miss the good old days. In grade school, even though we still had to go to school on Halloween, it was like a freebie day. We never had to do any work. We would … Continue reading Happy Halloween!→
5 more days until you know what. That’s right, election day. I personally can’t wait. Not because I believe that we are about to embark on a new era, or because I will be able to collect on all the bets I have made. It isn’t because I am excited to exercise the right that … Continue reading Get it over with already→
I was browsing the web this morning (doing some very important tasks) when I came across something pretty awesome. I found blog published by my cousin Jansen. I looks like it has been inactive for a while, but there is some pretty sweet stuff on there. For example, a collection of 3919 shopping lists. He … Continue reading Blast from the past→
I feel like all of the recent activities, like four day work-weeks, partying like it’s 1999, skewed sleep schedule, etc., are starting to catch up to me. I feel a little off kilter. Maybe the weather has something to do with it. As evidence of this, I’m pretty sure that I’m starting to come down … Continue reading Off my game→
I saw this video featured today on Razor Apple. I thought it was worth re-posting. If you had any doubt before, as to the sanity (or lack thereof) of NYC bike messengers, this film gives a pretty impressive slice of footage to base your conclusions on. I want to know how in the world they … Continue reading Two wheeled mayhem→
Well, I knew that the fabulous weather couldn’t last forever, but jeeezzz! Last night, it stormed like no other. This morning when I was leaving the house, it had subsided to a drizzle. I left the house sans rain jacket, thinking that I could just use the umbrella in my bag, if things worsened by … Continue reading Two tone pants→
I hate it when I take a few days off, from writing. I feel like there is always so much to catch up on. Saturday afternoon, my mom and sister Mimi flew in to hang out with Piper. We were able to have really good visits with Piper all 3 days that they were here. … Continue reading Mom, Mimi, Moma→
Since the days when my teacher stopped forcing me to use a pencil (circa 5th grade), pens have been my writing utensil of choice. With the exception of a few times like scantron exams and the bar exam, I have pretty much used pens exclusively. Even when sketching, I tend to use pens. Anyway, I … Continue reading Minor adjustment→
