Getting Creative

So somehow I hadn't noticed til now that on blogger I'm allowed to use different fonts and different colors. I may switch up the color/font system from time to time for kicks.

So I have nothing profound to write about today, which means I'm going for the weekend updating method:

Friday
-worked only til 5:30 and was still the last one there
-ate dinner while waiting for Andrew to come over
-forced him to see my cousin's art exhibit at Border's (which is amazing, she's selling some of her pieces for 1000 dollars) and he met my cousin Yvonne
-went back to my place and met up with Maura and Chris
-played Scattergories and Scene It (which I still dominate at)
-Maura and Chris left at about 11
-Adam and the regular crew came over after that
-Some carborators and beer pong action went on, and Andrew and I became very messed up
-Ben put in "The Triplets of Bellville" which is one of the strangest things I've ever seen (of course I was in a mind altered state)
-This was at about 4 in the morning so Andrew and I crashed soon after

Saturday
-Andrew kicked himself out around 9 to go to work (so he slept from 4 -8:30)
-I, on the other hand, slept til 1 pm
-went to Mike's wedding at 4, wearing super cute black dress
-got to see Doug again (woohoo!)
-open bar at reception, drank about 5 beers
-with the help of Angel, called Andrew drunkenly and told him to come there
-him, being the awesomely awesome person he is, got dressed up and came
-Andrew + dressed up = even hotter than usual = random girl blatantly hitting on him and me giving her annoyed glances
-danced more than I should have
-spilled coffee on Doug's crotch
-got called a "very bad girl" by my boss who holds a PhD in clinical psychology from Brown (aka a professional who should NOT DO THOSE THINGS)
-tried to learn a few swing dance steps from my very patient boyfriend
-left the reception around midnight, went to bars but suddenly didn't want to be at the bars after I got there
-Andrew and I came back to my apt and he couldn't sleep for a little while so we went to sleep around 4.....he got up at 6 (4-8:30 then 4-6, those are some wonderful hours to sleep)
-I, again on the other hand, woke up at noon

There's your weekend update, as uninteresting as it may be. Tune in next time when I shall be discussing gynological procedures and my grandmother's birthday (I bet you think I'm joking but I am not)

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
