As you may know, last night was BKFreak's now-legendary party, constructed of rooftop, barbecue, live band, transvestism, and alcohol, but the kitten was the mortar that held it all together. Go read BKFreak's entry for the full run-down on how awesome it was.

VSLF and I had a "blast", as the kids today would say. I finally got to meet the charming MrsMF....

VSLF had dinner with some of her colleagues. It seems the subject of the night was her plans for the rest of the evening; namely, to go with me to a CakeNYC event. The guys were all can you get me in?, and the ladies were that sounds like it could be fun... let me know how it goes, maybe I'll come next time....

I'm sure you're familiar with schadenfreude, the delicious and dark enjoyment of someone else's misfortune. I came across another fun German term recently: steppenwitz ("staircase wit"), the witty retort that occurs to you a few minutes too late.

Hate the Germans? You can also use the much more common l'esprit d'escalier. Harder to remember, I think.

If you have a good heart and...

Saturday was luna's rooftop party, which was great. The weather was so good, but all the girls in their short skirts got cold. Pssht. __underscore_girl__ has a new amazing tattoo. Ask to see it. My honeymoon with the drink called Sparks is over.

VSLF was supposed to be on my arm for the evening, but the phone rang: "Leah knows she's on call, right?"....

Today's $16/hr work: printing out a single email. Rest of the time I do nothing. Slept a little a few days ago.

I've gotten pretty brazen about enjoying the WWW, though this is the first time I've gone to a porn site. (Images off.)

World-famous cookbook writer VSLF's mom visited for a few days. That was some good eatings.

I've been buying lots of CDs...

All I know is: dark enough to make sex on the balcony a suitable activity. Wheee!

You know how it is. Sometimes you feel like posting, sometimes you don't.

Today's activity: junk food & videogames. I had Doritos for breakfast. The type with Olestra!

VSLF insists that it wasn't Gary Busey we saw at brunch. Whoever the hell it was, he certainly wanted people to think he ws famous, with his baseball cap and his sunglasses and his jewelery. I might have to try that; I wonder if I could pull it off.

I would like to have a taste test party. Coke vs. Pepsi, various vodkas, even butter...

Citysearch recommended a place for brunch so we checked it out. It was a bit of a slog getting to the lower-east side, but I'll be damned if we didn't have The Ultimate Brunch:
* Hip surroundings and clientele
* ...including I believe, Gary Busey
* Unpretentious attitude
* And a $12 brunch special which included:
* Very tasty food and
* Unlimited mimosas

I'd...
