It seems that there are less people in the city today. There were markedly fewer people in Grand Central when I was leaving my train this morning. I have to think it’s because of the recent information regarding possible terrorist activity in the city. Seems like security is very tight. I must admit I am feeling a little anxious, but I still came into work today.

Does anyone know about these bracelets I’ve been seeing? I think I’ve only seem them on Men. They are yellow and they look like they are plastic. They have a word embossed into them and they are about a 1/2 inch wide. If I remember correctly the word says something empowering but I can’t for the life of me remember what it says. I saw one on a guy sitting next to me on the bus in Martha’s Vineyard. In fact I saw a few that trip.

Does anyone know what this is all about?

Happy Birthday to me – and congratulations Erica & Pete and Keith and Kristen

GO SEE STARSKY & HUTCH! This movie was so funny – and Snoop stole the show.

I am very pumped. I came into work this morning and had e-mails from three very good friends that I haven’t talked to in a long time. That’s such a great thing. Jeff and I had a funny ride on the way to work today. We were having to whisper about all the conversation we were having because I was talking about something that was tame to us (about someone I know) but the suits on the train were giving us the “hairy eyeball” so we just kept talking but softer. I guess we curse a lot, who knew. It was even funnier because when we got quieter everyone was trying to listen. You could tell, the rustling newspapers got quieter, there weren’t as many slurps on the coffee… I think Jeff and I were the only hip kids on the train. Kids, hah!

Jeff cracks me up, I think he should have his own radio show or something. For folks in-the-know (Merchants who went to the Petra exhibit at the Museum of Natural History) just remember “city of ROCK!”.

We’re not trouble makers, we’re just working stiffs like the rest of the people on the train, but god forbid I don’t have a caffeine addiction or that I talk about how ridiculous it is that we don’t yet have marriage equality for all people… So ok, I drop the f-bomb every once in a while, I can’t help it – maybe I should belatedly give up cursing for lent. Someone at work did that once and now she says stuff like “baloney sandwiches”. It’s funny (and yes I know that’s not how you spell bologna).

Thanks for keeping in touch friends, sorry I’m such a dork when it comes to doing that myself.

Check out this dope set of action figures! It was one of my Christmas presents and I’m so psyched. I also joined Netflix and that’s been great. It’s forcing me to watch movies that I’ve never seen before, and J and I are getting each other up to speed on movies we think the other person should watch.

Things have been kindof boring lately. I got a lot of nice stuff for Christmas, but I think the after-holiday slump has hit me. Of course I try to make up new years resolutions, but it doesn’t feel like another year is here. We went to the aquarium this past weekend and it was nuts. Does anyone want 2 free kids tickets. We got them at an auction for my mom’s nursery school.

Happy New Year!

It’s been quite a long time since I’ve written anything in here. Work has been so incredibly stressful and busy. And right before Thanksgiving a good friend’s father died. My family and I were close to this man and his family. It’s still very hard to think about. I do however think about them often and how they are doing. I wish I knew the best thing to do in this situation. I don’t want to add to the constant hoards of people that must be suffocating them with awkward discussions, etc… I would love to just be able to hang out and be around. My friend lives in another area though, so it’s not like I could just call and drop by to see how she’s doing. I would like to go visit her though. She’s getting married in July and I’m so excited for her. My luck has sprung it’s ugly head however, one of J’s best friends is getting married on the SAME EXACT DAY! I am pissed at my luck. That means I can’t go with him, and he can’t go with me. It makes me sad in a way, I can’t believe that he’s going to miss my friend’s wedding. We won’t get to slow dance and get all romantic, It’s just a bummer. Silly I know, but a bummer none the less. WHAT ARE THE ODDS!?

So this past snowfall was very nice and I have a picture of one of our neighborhood squirrels for you to see. Enjoy!
