5 Things...
5 Things found in my bag: like 7 kiehls products (this new skin med is dryin’ me out!), iPod, animal crackers, fiji water, card from new restaurant “Elizabeth” where Lee took me (verdict: going to be a good lounge) 5 Favorite Things in my room: my CHIHUAHUA; my collection of frames on my wall that house some amazing memories; two modern art paintings that a lovely man once had...

I love your raw view of NYC…and your life…and that moment. The “normal” new york is my favorite new york. Thanks for sharing.

prague
dazzlingdelta:
i need to know everything anyone knows about prague. also what are some cool travel guides?
Wallpaper travel guides are the best. Hands down. Prague is just fabulous. Anything I could tell you to see or do is obvious. I have no special insight. You’ll have a blast.
casual encounter with clive.
me: wow. i'm sorry. (having just come flying around a corner on my morning run, running straight into someone else on his morning run)
him: it's okay, i don't live in this neighborhood, i didn't realize how sharp that corner is. really, i'm sure it is my fault.
me: the village roads and corners can be mysterious and unexpected.
him: i love it down here.
me: what brings you on a run this way? did you come down from uptown?
him: i'm working in the neighborhood actually for the next couple of weeks.
me: cool, well enjoy your time here.
him: have you ever been there? (points at restaurant on corner)
me: i go at least once a week actually.
him: well i'm going to be there Thursday evening around 8 if you'd like to join and have a glass of wine? we can nurse our running injuries over meatball sliders.
me: i'm not sure, i think i have plans that evening.
him: like i said, i'm here for a few weeks. i hope you'll call me, ?.
me: sarah. what kind of work do you do?
him: hands me his card, smiles, turns to start up his run... "i really hope we can continue this conversation when i'm a bit more presentable. have a lovely day miss sarah"

facebook + birthdays.
me: your follow through (or lack thereof) is ridiculous.
him: but i remembered your birthday
me: logging into facebook, having FACEBOOK tell you it was my birthday, and then subsequently texting me does not count as you having remembered. it. just. doesn't.
him: well i remembered to log into Facebook.
me: you're 40, technically you shouldn't even have a facebook.
him: why? all of my girlfriends have been in their demographic.

soupsoup:karmcity: God speed, Muxtape.
Hello, inevitable. That was a bit faster than I expected but still so obviously expected. Too bad the big guys can’t work with the little (?) guys and find a solution that doesn’t f the lovers of music.
new friends
dazzlingdelta:
sarah and i were just talking about new friends and tumblr and it reminded me of when my friend carrie and i made a ton of new friends summer before our senior year of college.

gta iv = no work today.
I don’t know much about this game or any video game really, but it is damn fun, even for an amateur. New York City is so well represented and accurate. Impressive. I’m sure it is a thousand other gamer adjectives that I do not know.
The gamer experts at my office let me get in a minute as they were going to get beers + mexican.
Productive day indeed. It pays to market for tons of...

dinner for one
katieschenk:
I’m craving a kick ass Lobster Roll, so I have decided that I will be dining at Bongo tomorrow after work. Eating alone has never really bothered me too much, but of course there is always the awkward response from the hostess, “oh, just one?” I have had people tell me that they would never dine alone. My philosophy is that there is no reason I should wait around for friends (or...

casey kasum: i'm going to the box.
me and lee at the same time: i don't want to go to the box. over it.
casey kasum: look around you.
me: yes?
casey kasum: i think we might be the oldest people in this bar.
me: easy now.
lee: she's only 26.
me: well actually...i just turned 27.
lee: wow you're too old for me.

Anyone interested in checking out his rooftop exhibition tomorrow?
I don’t think I can go tomorrow but I am definitely interested in going sometime. So if anyone is up for next weekend, let me know… I think sunset is the best time to go for all of the obvious reasons. Wouldn’t that be a great date?

This would be example #4523485024 of stuff we had days before Gawker tried to fill their pages when they don’t have enough smack about Julia to dig up. This is one of the first times that they cite it—although only giving credit to the flickr not to the fact that it was on Tumblr. Why won’t Gawker acknowledge that they take content from Tumblr users? Don’t we all deserve...
