Some friends from college came up for a long weekend, so that only means drunken debauchery abound!

Went to a bar down near NYU called the Crocodile Lounge, normal friday night college crowd. Made me feel a bit old and lecherous, but the free pizzas with each beer was surprisingly good. So whatcha gunna do? hah Luckily they gave me their leftover tickets as they...

I love NYC, I really do. I love the business of it all, the trains, the noise, the throngs of people from everywhere. I can look passed not having family up here because all the excitement and the adventure of living on Manhattan. That being said, deep within is a longing for a much simpler existence...

Spent the majority of the morning putting together the clips I had taken from when my friend Holly was in town last week, and I'm pretty pleased with the result. It is my first attempt, of course, so I'm looking forward to making more and making them better

getting the vlog rolling slowly by uploading a small clip to youtube so I can learn how it all works

oh man, had an awesome first half of the day showing a friend around the NYC. Empire State Building, Times Square, Mid-Town Comics, and getting some video for my upcoming vlog. i need a nap now haha

Well the other, other, other shoe finally dropped at work. With the economy being down, and work being particularly slow, hours will be cut back sometime soon....

On the bright side of having one less day of work, I'll have more time to explore the city and do all sorts of other things that are free.

Wow, so my mom initiated a meet and greet between myself(of course) and the daughter of her best friend, who happens to also now be living up here in NY. Now, i haven't seen this girl in prolly over 20 years.. In fact, I actually forgot she existed, so when my mom brought the whole thing up I had her older sister come to mind....

ah, another weekend is wrapping up for me and i sit here watching Porco Rosso with a glass of whiskey. pretty proud that i was able to get a lot of what i wanted to do accomplished. Cleaned, cooked, hung out a bit with friends, and did my best to keep ignoring the holiday's influence. Didn't have much time to think about the last one...

There lays an isle to the distant north of this land that stands as testament to the accomplishments of man, both large and small. From shore to shore stretch unbelievably tall buildings that strain the neck from the passers-by level. What goes on up in such dwellings can be only guessed at by the folks who pass by in throngs on a minutely basis. Indeed...
