Why I love tourists in New York City

31Dec05

Hello all!
I upgraded to the new WP 2.0 and it’s quite nice indeed. I thought I would share what happened to me yesterday. I braved the crowds and went to 34th street to buy my last minute New Year’s Eve shirt with my brand new Amex gift card. My co-workers gave it [...]

Santa and his reindeer

27Dec05

I love how my dirty napkin looks great as the snow. Just in case you didn’t know, these are little decorations for a cake.

Merry Christmas 2005!

25Dec05

There’s only 30 minutes left of Christmas, so I decided just to wish everyone a Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah and Happy Kwanzaa.
I spent my Christmas Eve at the wonderful Foxwoods. It was nice even though it was in the middle of nowhere Connecticut. Jessica and I were sleeping peacefully when we were rudely [...]

Day 3 of the strike

22Dec05

Well guys, I walked to work yet again. It wasn’t so bad, it was a tiny bit warmer. Today I decided to go all out and wear sweatpants to work. I usually wear jeans to work, but I feel much more comfortable in sweatpants when I have to walk 2 miles to [...]

Transit strike officially in effect

20Dec05

Wow, who would have thought the TWU would have the guts to start a system-wide strike just five days before Christmas? No subways or buses. How can this be? I think I will be walking to work. It should only take me one hour.
Let’s hope this is only for today:stressed:

Night of five bars

11Dec05

Last night, my friends and I were lucky enough to go to five different bars. One was in the west village and the others were all in the east village. Lucky us! I really think I’m getting too old for this. I’m all about going out until 1am and going home [...]

The first big snow of 2005

09Dec05

Okay so we had a false alarm earlier this week about this big bad snow storm. We ended up with a centimeter of snow. So when there was yet another winter storm watch, I disregarded it because meterologists are always wrong! Well it turns out they were pretty right about this storm. [...]

The risks of shopping online

07Dec05

I purchased a beautiful coat at overstock.com. I bought it in the size I usually wear. These days, each brand likes to follow its own sizing chart, so I worried that the coat would be too tight and not cover my large butt. To my surprise, the coat was too big and [...]
