Rat on Fire
Ok so the past few days have been quite eventful. Here is a quick recap
My apartment has a major rodent problem. I've killed a rat and 5 mice so far. Saturday night there was mouse trauma. I was cooking Mac and Cheese on the old gas over which has big flames and low and behold a demonic mouse decended from behind the sugar jar. I was horrified and quickly grabbed the boiling spoon to whack it way. I was successful in that I hit the rat. I was unsuccessful in that the rat flew on to the side of the pot and was lit aflame by the gas. It skimpered about and fell of the oven edge onto the floor and tried to go behind the fridge, but couldn't as i believe its head was on fire. I, recovered from shock, try to scoop up the firey demon with two spoons like one would use to toss a salad. I manage to get the mouse to the sink, where I run water over it to extinguish it. The water causes parts of the mouse to rinse away. Needless to say the rat expired and left behind quite a mess. I couldn't return to the creamy goodness that was macoroni so I went straight for the alcohol and pizza.
Earlier on saturday I went to Tatiana's rest. in brighton beach. Good russian cookin' right on the boardwalk. But tatiana ripped me off. She charged me different price than were on the menu and an 18 dollar meal with tasty kvas cost me a new price of thirty. Needless to say I got my angry russian face on and began to shout Girl, Girl, Girl (in russian Девушка) . This is how one calls a waitress in russian. And then we had it out. I told her I was only paying 18. She was like we will call the police. The place screamed mafiosa. ALAS. Atleast the Kvas and food were good and view was spectacular, minus the speedos.
In sundays new york times there was an article that confirmed my suspicions about tatiana's rest. Appearantly it burned down mysteriously last year. Bad buisness.
On saturday I ran into my pediatrician kinda randomly. So sunday I had lunch with his daughter and then went to the Whitney museum of American Art to see cuban-american process art. It was very cool. There was this movie of a lady who covered herself in blood and the rolled around in chicken feathers naked and the ran around on a beach. There were also burning goddess in streams. I am a big fan of performance and process art. I think if I were to be an artist I would become my art and/or destroy things.
Today I edited video in the same studio that produces DragonBall Z. How cool is that. I got to watch the stuff before it was dubbed in english. Beans!
