Future Trophy Wife

That's the name on a t-shirt that I wanted at Steve & Barry's today but, alas, I heart my plain ole solid colored clothing way too much to flirt with it too badly. Currently I'm sitting in Joe's room on his computer waiting for him to return from showerland. Britney (old school) is blasting from the bathroom and Pete is laying (quietly!!!) next to me, it's different and nice.

My life never really changes, unless I come down to Geneva, then usually I notice that my friends are reproducing other friends like crazy, and I have to meet a whole bunch of new people. Which is fine, it's just another painful reminder of how removed I am from them. But really, all of my non-Rochesterian friends have hosts of other friends as well, so it's not really a big deal. It is what happens. You can't know everyone. And blah blah blah. I still have a great time when I see them, and that's what matters.

I am down here to hang with them, and to hang with my mama tomorrow. I got her an "Edible Arrangement" for Mother's Day, and these things are crazy amazing. If you ever want to get a spectacuLAR (sorry that was Pete in a not-rare manic state) edible present for somene, check out this stuff.

Speaking of food...I thought of a few more items I'm angry I can't find:
--cheese and bacon flavored "Easy Cheese" (stuff that is good on triscuits and horrible for you)
--this awesome cheesey bacony potatoey soup from Campbells
And yes, cheese and bacon are my favorite foods.

Sorry everyone, this blog entry is probably all over the place. When I don't have pictures to set a mood, I just don't know what to do with myself. I guess I'll just list all the important events coming up, and we'll call it a day:

--Next week: moving in with Mr. Mike
--June 2nd: Brian and Alex's wedding
--June 9th-12th: Off to Minnesota to celebrate my extensive knowledge of sleep with work folk
--June 23rd (I think): My littlest brother's graduation *tear*
--End of June: Finally seeing where Mike came from
--July or August: going to Chicago to see Catharine (and hopefully Chris!) and getting a tattoo
--Early September: Noah and Olivia's wedding at Casa Larga

Looks like it'll be a fun summer!

PS: The latest in my geeky news...I am about a level 42 on Puzzlequest, I am about a quarter of the way through a Bruce Campbell autobiography (it's so interesting how they made Evil Dead!) and I just watched Pi for the first time (anyone who likes it, watch Primer).

Okay that's it....Joe's back :)

So is Primer like literally a primer for atching Pi, or is it a sequel? And would the third movie in this potential trilogy be called "Cubed?" Cuz they already made an indie horror movie called the Cube, and it was both good AND kinda about math.

OK, I'm getting flashbacks to Trig class now with all this math-speak. Yay geekiness and moving in together!

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
