Ryan came over yesterday and we did brunch al fresco. Mmmm, mimosa-hybrids (orange/mango/peach juice) and omelets with onions and avocados and provolone cheese YUM.

Eeeeeeh! Guess what! I found a stable near my new place! We had our annual softball tournament this past weekend (more on this in a bit) and it was on Randall's Island which is directly across the river from SpaHa--in fact as it turns out there's a footbridge at 103rd St. I've never been to Randall's Island before so I looked it up on Google ( Read more... )

Not feeling so good today...I've had one of those awful summer colds--terrible sore throat off and on--for a couple of weeks now. I was thinking of picking up a game tomorrow but maybe I should sleep in. For some reason I have not had a really good night's sleep for at least a week--not sure why since I was finally able to put up curtains, even ( Read more... )

Fort Tryon Park, this Sunday!

The other exciting news is that...*drum roll* Lori and I have FINALLY found a place. We signed the lease last Friday and are moving in ( Read more... )

Saturday was a nice mellow day. I was originally planning to go to Hoboken for callbacks for A Christmas Carol but we're having some difficulty getting men so we postponed the callbacks. Which worked for me, I could sleep in. I eventually arose and drank coffee and then finally pulled myself together enough to go over to the Time-Warner store ( Read more... )

We had the Thyme reading Monday evening (which went very well) and Luke (Demetrius) had asked us over to his place afterward but he lived further downtown and I didn't want to get home late so I decided against it.

(Second time around--this is the two-hour post that was et on Friday.)

So, yeah, uh, Holla Holla is doing another Shakespeare in the Park this summer--Twelfth Night to be performed for three weekends in August as Clinton Cove Park along the Hudson River (at 55th & the River). Ever since I saw Shakespeare in Love I've had that final image in my ( Read more... )

Last night I went over to Sami's to look at some stuff she offered up for Midsummer costumes. I took the N all the way to the end and walked 8 blocks through Astoria to get to the cute lil' apartment she shares with Silas. Astoria seems quite hipster-y--I loved all the darling restaurants that I passed, even if every other street sign was in ( Read more... )

So I went up to the new building this morning to pick up my copy of the executed lease. I thought I would also be able to get the keys, but they're still working on the apartment. The manager, Doryne, insisted on showing me the progress so far, however. It looks beautiful, even still in medias res. The hardwood floor has been laid down and ( Read more... )
