hot time, summer in the city

Okay I still have to update from this past weekend but I have to get to work so I'm just gonna say a few random things instead:

- seriously....WHY are construction guys outside of my window when all it faces is another house? I think there's like....a clothesline there or something. Anyway I woke up this morning to the sounds of "hot time/summer in the city/back of my neck gettin dirty and gritty" and first got confused that I had an alarm on and then subsequently realized that it was just really loud and annoying worker guys. Grrrr

- it's funny that last night I put a picture up on "myspace" that shows my body (instead of just a headshot like I had on there before) and this morning I wake up to 1 new friend request, 2 picture comments, and 1 message. If you aren't on myspace and are confused just ask me what the hell I'm talking about. My point is, however, that I just find it suspicious since I hardly ever get messages/friend requests/comments

- JOE AND I ARE TALKING AGAIN! Well I sent him an email and he sent me one back and I IMed him about a half a million times and he didn't answer but that's okay, we're still on the road to success. (wow what a weirdo I am) Anyway I hate fighting with people like this so I'm very happy

- I called my student loan service place the other day because I had a question and the guy that answered had the most annoying way of speaking EVER. Tell me you wouldn't be annoyed with hearing this on the phone: "So...like....yeah your like interest rate is like really low and stuff, like this looks like really good....like." ARE YOU A BLACK VALLEY GIRL?? I'm glad he told me my interest rate was low, otherwise I would have been so annoyed I would have hung up.

Okay I'm done now.....stay tuned

umm I don't get the "shut up" response....you don't want me to write in my blog anymore?

and I'm sorry if he was obviously an african american male who talked like a 16 year old white girl. I'm not being racist, that's just how it was.

You two fight like an old married couple. It's funny for me to come here and read comments that are basically just the two of you conversing in another forum.

Glad you two aren't fighting anymore!

The Deal with Kevin Spacey: Part 2

Image
I figure I better finish this captivating cliff hanger before 2013, so I'm writing this just under the wire. Starting from the end of the previous blog entry, here we go: A little over a year ago now, my best friend Angie posted a link to my Facebook page of a trailer for Kevin Spacey in  Richard III . The thing is, this was not a movie, it was a stage play. And the even better thing is, he was performing at BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music). Mike and I had already moved away from Brooklyn at that time, but I had gone to BAM before, and it happened to be a quick walk from our old neighborhood. That got me thinking that it would not be difficult to get there. I looked on the BAM website, and saw that tickets were affordable. Also, Bank of America members (which, regrettably, I am) got early access to tickets. I believe the tickets went on sale in early November 2011. I called BAM the minute the box office opened that day, and ordered 2 tickets for Mike and I to attend in February

Celebrities May Be Smaller Than They Appear

Image
If there's one thing I learned since moving to NYC, it's that celebrities are tiny people. Usually both thin and short. When I met most of the cast of Ugly Betty , that was what I noticed first. I met Amanda, Mark, Hilda, and saw Betty (I don't know their real names, I don't even watch the show actually) and they looked like the littlest people alive. America Ferrera (I lied, I know her name) must be like 5'0. Last week I went to a broadway show called "Spring Awakening" that starred Hunter Parrish (Silas on Weeds ). On stage he looked thin but tall. Once we spoke to him afterwards he was shorter than me (I was leaning back in the pic) and definitely thinner than me. The day after meeting Hunter, I found "no parking" temporary signs on my street. These signs are posted all over the place when a filming is going on. I looked at what was filming, and lucky me, it was Flight of the Conchords , season 2! I've mentioned here before that

Reflections

Well once again, I'm getting a post in just under the wire. It's been about 8 months since I last posted, and that makes Simon 11 months old right now. I looked back at my last post, and many of the "bad" things have changed. We can go to restaurants now, and we can even bring Simon if it is appropriate! I don't have to run around like crazy trying to get things done, because Simon will sit and play by himself for awhile if I need to do something. Likewise, I can take my time eating again. After about the 4-5 month mark, things got progressively easier. He learned to hold and play with objects, then to sit up, then to crawl, and now he stands (holding on to things). This makes him more and more independent. He has 8 teeth now, and eats most of what we eat, but in tiny pieces. He can wave, and clap, and say little words like mama, dada, baba, hey, and yay. He is tall for his age, but slim. He looks like Mike from the front and me from the side. He hugs and danc
