December 20th, 2009



Ok, sorry I didn't post yesterday. Now that I am officially one third of the way through the project (eek!) I am apparently becoming lax and cavalier, and forgetting. Anyway, to make up for it here are TWO photos (I love this new polaroid app, it's amazing), one taken in the wee hours of December 20th, and one taken at my fun, but cold, book group anniversary brunch.

There's supposed to be snow. It hasn't started yet. I got an amazing new app for my phone - it's a polaroid-style picture-taker!

Somebody's parents keep plying me with large quantities of wine.

Christmastoria, Christmas with work girls, a surprise visit from Anthony, and almost best of all: lasagna in a dish.

Almost as good as my mom's! (Also - coming home on the subway, at the 42nd street transfer from the 1 to the NR, two people carrying a Christmas tree. They got to get home somehow!)

A Hanukkah miracle - gelt in my purse!

Latke Larry was well deserved (and cambodian spicy mayonnaise with latkes is the wave of the future. Seriously). G train, 1 train, amazing train coincidences are taking place. Unbelievable. Phone calls I want to have happen are on the verge.

This woman quilts city maps onto blankets - probably through some type of CAD program, right? Then she hand-embroiders onto them places of interest (or places you're fond of) - she showed me one including the Tenement Museum and Babycakes. SO cool, I kind of want one.

Two women sitting next to each other on the subway, who don't know each other, both in large houndstooth patterned caps. A woman standing by a large glass window holding a baby in a red and white striped onesie.

Dear laundry: do yourself. Dear blog: write yourself. Dear dishes: wash yourself. Dear Christmas presents: wrap yourself. Dear knitting: knit yourself.

Mmmm, meat...

Somehow it was hard not to write "December 6th, 2007", not sure why. Sorry for the late post, I like to think I was so frozen by the cold I couldn't unclench my hand to type, but that's just not true. When did I become a "talking on the phone" person?

I find this both highly depressing and inspiringly clever and ingenious.

Dropped a clear small marble into the east river. Walked the 59th street bridge with D, then edamame dumplings, then balling yarn after cracking a teacup with boiling water.

Why am I hung over at 11:00 at night? How did I possibly get so much Christmas shopping done today?

Two people on the subway with big noses kissing and rubbing their big noses together. A man on the subway with earlobes horizontal to the floor. A couple kissing in the rain.

Belated post. I fell asleep.
P.S. That bit of light in the window is the giant MOON!
