So, exactly as I promised yesterday, I went ahead and took advantage of the lovely weather and went down to Sheepshead Bay to bother Илья. I ordered a pair of fatties to slap on the Intrepid for the AK ride. The ride back to the apartment, watching the sun set across the Hudson, was pretty sweet. Just before I left for Brooklyn, senandhaku called and said ( Read more... )

I got to play bike messenger a bunch of times for work last week. It was pretty fun dancing with the cars in midtown again, as my travels don't typically give me occasion to pass through midtown these days. One time as I was leaving the store I ran into Deenah (literally ran into, as in almost slammed the door in her face... it's a glass door... i ( Read more... )

So Friday night over dinner _notanugget_ and i talked about, among other things, "absentmindedly-non-vegan dreams", for lack of a better word. (We didn't actually have a name for them, and I just made that one up.)

OK, I really just came here to do the meme brizmus tagged me to do, but while I'm here, I'll go ahead and recap the past few days, in the same style as the previous entry:

Saturday 3rd: House rewarming party at revamerika's. Brought the Yamato so that I wouldn't have to walk home from the subway. This turned out to be a good/bad idea, as it was snowing when I got out of the subway. On the one hand, I didn't have to walk through the snow. On the other hand, I didn't have fenders, which meant my pants got assaulted by freezing ( Read more... )

So it looks like this vegan thanksgiving is tentatively happening this weekend, according to Dan K. More details as they're available within the next couple of days or so.

So i was in the Radio Shack around the corner from work picking up a recording gizmo, and asked a simple question before buying it: "does this provide mic level or line level ( Read more... )

Birthday party on saturday in the 'hurst (pronounced "hoist") with a bunch of kids. Most of the same crown from movie night was there, plus belcantin and kingzog and a bunch of other kids who probably don't have livejournals, or if they do, I don't know where.

Random visitors today. First _notanugget_ dropped by and surprised me with a slice of vegan celery root pizza ( ( Read more... )
