-Met the guy that snuck in to the mtv VMA's and was given his own show.
-Was told by strange man that I 'looked like I stepped out of a macy's window'
-Made friends with a guy who turned out to be a homeless man
-Had my hair pulled by a girl at work

-Had risa and kevin come and visit for a weekend
-Saw RxBandits and feared for my life taking the J train late at night
-Cut straight-forward bangs and regretted the decision once they began growing out
