My New Home....for now

I have moved again. This is my 4th apartment in Rochester, and possibly the last. I'm a gypsy at heart, what can I say? This apartment is pretty damn cool, though. I am living with a boy that I love, and I know I did that the last time and it turned out badly, but this time it's different. Laugh or whatever, but it is!

I took the liberty of taking a few pictures of the place. It's got two living rooms (one is a fooseball/bar/fun room thing) a dining room, butler's pantry, kitchen, two bedrooms (one is a guest/computer/piano room) and of course a bathroom. It's kinda hard to take pictures of the place but you can get a small idea from these:

Our living room, before our furniture


Part of the Butler Pantry, also before we got stuff in there


Our cute little bar area


A view of the dining room (and 2 living rooms in the background)


Oh and thanks to Mike, I never have to rent movies again.

We hope to have people over soon, there have only been a few people over to see the place. It's still not completely set up and it's gonna be a super busy next few weeks, so I'm not sure when we'll have our shin-dig.

Since I never write any deep thoughts anymore, I'll just say one thing that I've been thinking lately: Sometimes I get urges to dress up like a skanky super heroine. I don't know if it's the geek in me or the attention whore in me, but there was this girl on Angel last night who dressed in red and black leather and walked around like she owned everyone. It made me want to be her. Also every time I see the Charlie's Angel's movies I want to dress like them. I really want someone (acchem Catharine) to analyze me and tell me why. I'm guessing I either want more control or more attention. Does every girl feel this way? Do guys want to be like the X-Men or James Bond? I feel more confident when I think I look good, maybe that's it? Anyway....

Before I leave you like a thief in the night, here is a pretty funny (really corny) picture from going home a few weeks ago:

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
