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→
I saw this on Animalnewyork today. Apparently someone thinks that having Sarah Palin in the White House is a frightening prospect. So much so, that they started a street art campaign. You can download your own printable copy, like the one below, from frightentingprospect. Poor Palin. First portrayed as a Moose murderer, now as a … Continue reading Palin Posters→
It’s a new sport. I can tell by your face that you haven’t heard of Kung Fu Skateboarding. Ok, it isn’t really a new sport (or a sport at all), but it sounds like it would be pretty sweet, if someone were to invent it. Way cooler than rollerblade basketball. We bombed some hills in … Continue reading Kung Fu Skateboarding→
The USS Intrepid is a retired WWII aircraft carrier that has been converted into a museum. For years, it was moored next to Pier 86 in Chelsea. Two years ago, the ship was moved from it’s moorings to a dry dock in NJ to be refurbished. It was a pretty spectacular sight, to watch the … Continue reading USS Intrepid is coming home!→
The vacation day that I was planning to take today, didn’t exactly work out. It seems like lately with work, things have been relatively slow, until this week. Things have been going like gangbusters, again. I’m super glad about being busy, but it is kind of a bummer that it happens when I actually have … Continue reading When it rains it pours→
Last night we spent the evening at the Garden, taking in the sounds of Weezer. If I mentioned that Weezer is Reagan’s favorite band, it would be a gross understatement. She was loving every second of it. I have to admit that I am a pretty avid Weezer fan myself. Highlights: -Weezer opened with My … Continue reading Weezer Show→
It was ideal weather to be dressed up in an inflatable nylon chicken suit this morning. When I was moving the car around 6:30 this morning, it was downright brisk. I brought a cardigan with me today, just in case. I guess that yesterday Autumnal Equinox made it official, and mother nature is complying. Returning … Continue reading Giant chicken spotted at WTC PATH station→
