as souvenirs to commemorate my trip, i purchased a $4.50 black v-neck tee, ginger-flavored hard candies, spelt crackers, and a yellow ceramic tea cup (with matching coaster).
as i prepare to go back to austin reality, i just remembered that my internship at tx. monthly starts friday and there’s so much to do! like go to central market and put air in my bike tires and
i haven’t even put together any business casual – appropriate attire to don. where are my grey pants they’ve been missing SO long now.
bye new york.

apparently my wish to see scott schuman got mixed up in the filter because instead i saw jane aldridge waiting outside topshop. furthermore, why am i such a creep?

happy memorial day. today i’m going to some thrift stores.

on day 3.5 of new york trip. due to lack of internet access, my updates have been nonexistant. fortunately, i found a place to get $1.75 breakfast and free internet.

yesterday i went to tribeca and got semi-lost. on a scale of 1-10, it was like a 7 but then i effortlessly found my way back uptown, which i think earns me back some navigational points. also, so many sandwiches. also, i always forget how much i love bodegas. seriously. this entry to be continued.

there are some great missed connections up today.

the summer has arrived and alas, i have not kept this blog up to speed.

i guess i’ll list some modest goals/plans, just for the record:

• getaway to n.y. this week. plan on mostly od-ing on french vanilla tasti d’lite and stalking scott schuman, he’ll probably be easy to spot what with that camera and for some reason i feel like he’s short.
• i’m striving to enjoy movies, mostly because i kind of hate them and have a 10-minute attention span, as realized through this but also because movies are boring. this week, i watched trainspotting, the 400 blows, and a series of compiled shorts by michel gondry. i actually paid attention during one of these. 
• trampoline! trampoline! jumping on a trampoline! really.
• maybe i’ll read a book , but probably not (see point #2)

note to self: don’t ever try vegan “cheese” again. seriously, it’s the worst.

this weekend involved an array of emotions, from eating whole lemons on miracle fruit and making myself sick to going on really long runs and hurting myself. i think i’m still suffering the miracle fruit hangover, but i can’t find our bottle of excedrin. this week, i will live in squalor and probably not shower until i’ve finished all of the many things i have left to complete. right now i’m working on a philosophy paper, but my efforts thus far are pretty futile. I can’t really remember my argument for more than a minute before i get seriously confused. “the sun will rise tomorrow.” i think this is what i’m arguing for. or maybe against, who knows.

on the plus side!  i made cinnamon toast on spelt bread today just like mommy used to make. crusts cut off.
