I’m going to start this post by saying anyone who knows me knows that I hate the following things: the heat, people, crowds of people, people encroaching on my own personal space, waiting, and port-a-potties. This didn’t make me feel particularly optimistic about attending The Great Googa Mooga today. I knew a few people that [...]

Keith Haring

After brunch at Applewood, Amy and I went to the Brooklyn Museum today to see the Keith Haring exhibit. I was familiar with his work, but not that familiar. Whenever I see his work it always seems really comforting to me somehow. At the exhibit today I realized that’s because he did the cover of my [...]
Governors Island: Take Two

On Saturday my friend Laura and I went to Governors Island for the day (my second visit of the summer, check out the first). It was a perfect day, warm, but not too hot, sunny, but still some clouds so it didn’t feel like the sun was beating down on us all day. Pics and [...]

I was going to post last night, but I’m actually really glad I didn’t. You’ll have to read until the end to find out why. Yesterday was an absolutely killer day. I woke up feeling happy, I had had a great weekend, but then I started thinking about everything I had to do at work [...]
Brooklyn Botanical Garden

A few weeks ago I took a trip to the Brooklyn Botanical Garden right around the time the cherry blossoms were blooming. I realized I never posted the pictures so here we are… All the pictures (good and bad) are here. This was my first time at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden and I loved it. [...]
My Weekend: Burgers and Lobster Rolls

I had a pretty great weekend. It was busy, but relaxing, and I got to see a bunch of friends. For lunch on Friday I had a burger from Westville. Friday night I went with my friend Josy to her coworker’s photography exhibit at the Yes Gallery in Greenpoint. It was a very cool show [...]

Yesterday was a gorgeous day in NYC. Or it was after about 10am, when I left for the gym at 7:45am it was drizzling. I met a friend in a neighboring neighborhood in the afternoon and since the weather was so nice I decided to walk. Thanks to Instagram I was able to take this [...]
American High Style

Last Thursday, as part of my on-going birthday celebration, I took my friend Josy as my date to the opening of the American High Style exhibit at the Brooklyn Museum. You might remember the last opening at the Brooklyn Museum I attended? Well this one wasn’t as cool, there was no Blondie performance, but the [...]
My Weekend

My weekend was both boring and intersting at the same time. First, I attempted to go for a run mid-day on Saturday. A 10-mile run. It was almost 90 degrees outside. Big mistake. I made it 3 miles and thought I was going to die. I’m not normally a big sweater but this was out [...]

Today was a gorgeous day here in Brooklyn. I really love living here. I think Brooklyn has so, so much to offer. With the nice weather I decided to take a walk around my neighborhood. I know there’s quite a few here, but I did a lot of picture taking and I thought I’d bring [...]
