More or less recovered from the conference and safely ensconced back home, Dean and I joined David for an early spring Sunday stroll through the WV and a delicious brunch. Afterward, David took his leave of us to engage in one of life’s simple pleasures while Dean and I headed uptown to MOMA for a [...]

At Home He’s a Tourist, 8: MOMA redux
09-Mar-09David and I took a pie-baking class at the Brooklyn Kitchen. It was pretty much totally awesome. Today I thought I’d lost my pie on the subway, which would have sucked, but then I found it in my apartment. I tried to get some ice cream to go with it, and had agreed with myself [...]
Labor day weekend included: a quick stop at a dance party, five more job applications, some bike rides, an outdoor Brooklyn flea market, two late brunches, Warioware for Wii Smooth Moves, birthday cake (not mine), and, obviously, hot dogs.

They had strong but clear voices that made for sweet, clean harmonies. I stayed for a song and half, then figured I’d had [...]
At Home He’s a Tourist, 1 & 2
11-Jul-08Dean is working on me to work on my powers of positive thinking, and along those lines, I’ve decided to assume I will get a real job for next year, despite some indications to the contrary. A corollary to this is that I will, most likely, be leaving NYC in about a year. I think [...]
