Some people loved the play, others HATED it and wanted it killed with fire. Ranges from "He didn't care for it. The foul language didn't help. He's a commercial producer. He couldn' ( Read more... )

Dropped my ipod! in a tub of water yesterday. It was totally submerged for a second or two, but seems to be fine. Whew! It does seem to turn itself back on randomly, but I have a feeling it's been doing that.

Happy birthday clockworkmonkeyI have a place to live! I'm moving into Dana's apartment in Astoria. It's off the Ditmars stop. (For those who've been to the Waltz-Astoria, it's in the opposite direction from the train when you go down Ditmars. Beautiful place, nice neighborhood.
