Count-down to mom. This afternoon, crossing the street with an alumnus who was telling me about how pastrami sandwiches made his hands shake like a heroin addict, I saw a hawk carry off a pigeon from the top ledge of the Carl Fischer building. There was another pigeon sitting right next to this scene, and it barely flinched.

Miss Harriet looking guilty with her "birthday" present.

Tacos via Naomi - pictionary - keep the streets empty for me - officially Dirty Harry's birthday.

A soggy day, but kind of perfect. Long phone calls. Steak sandwiches.

Momofuku magic, who knew brussel sprouts with fish sauce could be so amazing!

Windy in DUMBO. Shook 20 hands (all male). A blue peanut m&m racing the length of the subway car.

Indiana Jones at the office - crated artwork and a crowbar. On my way home the R train stopped. Turned off entirely in the subway. Lights were on, but people so silent I could hear the man at the other end of the car turning the pages of his book.

I am the very model of a modern Shup-Shup-General,
I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral,
I know the kings of England, and I quote the fights historical
From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical;
I'm very well acquainted, too, with matters mathematical,
I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical,
About binomial theorem I'm teeming with a lot o' news,
With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse.
I'm very good at integral and differential calculus;
I know the scientific names of beings animalculous:
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
I am the very model of a modern Shup-Shup-General.

(Recite in a British accent.)

Sorry for the belated post, y'all. I had technology and motivation issues (what's new?).

Ok, I'm cheating again by posting two, but look how strangely well they go together? I can't get over those ribbons (and that they colored the Empire State Building for my work event!).

Sore arm from the flu shot. Tonight the Empire State Building disappeared entirely into the fog.

Part 2: I'm restraining myself (because of hiccups?) from posting a photo that thoroughly proves that sometimes my work gets a little silly (out of control and I can't stop the hiccups).

October 23rd. 2009


So work has been kicking my ass, and it's hard right now not to be on my "home rows" because of a wicked case of the hiccups. But these cowboy-webs saved the day yesterday.

So, yeah, I've been spending a lot of time at work this week. But how can I resist when it glows so?

An only moderately tweaked and cropped sunset out my office window. It has now become the time of year in which I leave work in the dark. Sigh.

Seriously? Gucci dog-toys. And this is the price at DSW! Harriet needs some designer toys.

Sorry, faithful readers, my internet connection had a melt-down last night (too much Fringe online?) and wouldn't let me connect. All things are mended by a good night's compu-sleep apparently. Shawl preview, pre-blocking.

Oh dear, She Wolf will not get out of my head. I'm hoping Harriet will hide in the closet so I can sing it to her with legitimacy.

Cooperversary! Also the day after I first went out alone with Brian-Shy, sigh. Drunken brunch, drunken dinner, drunken cat-adoration.

Magritte paints clouds in lower Manhattan. Also this is possibly one of the greatest artist portraits ever taken: Magritte

Sometimes my hair does pretty things all by itself. Sometimes I am really tired. Sometimes I forget my camera at home and don't get home until 8:30 and don't want to do anything but watch glee with the cat on my chest. Sometimes.

Thanks to Lindsey for the point-out of this lovely photo-op. I can hardly wait for the Lubalin Center show that I know is coming up. Fonts fonts fonts! Love love love.

I forgot my camera at home today (charging after the wedding), so this is my first post from the camera on my phone, which is not a bad one. See me in it?

A new pizza place (in New Haven, eek!) holds the key to my heart.

Mazel Tov, Jess and Dave. A string of sparrows over Stamford from the window of the train. I had to tell the concierge that Mittens was my maiden name. Good times, wedding!

There were many (strangely) map related photos to choose from tonight. But it was kind of the definition of an excellent night. Yarn, bulgogi, gelato, fancy cocktails, two lovely, separate, friends that I adore, and quick-arriving subways. Plus my iPhone selected Hot Chip's Ready for the Floor on my way home from the train and it was everything I could do to resist dancing.

Happy birthday to Ryan. I worked 12 hours, but got mac n' cheese out of it. Good deal? Maybe...
