Fuck Angst!

Ahh... late October in NYC, I guess that means it's time to pick a season. Thanks mother nature. I loved sweating and freezing in the same day.

Well, I lied in the last post, 'cause here it is nearly 6 months since the last entry. Shall I do a recap of some sort?

The summer was fun. Hot and sticky and bright. spent some time back upstate with the family and friends. Good to see all of them and let them know we're still alive down here. Fall is finally here, which means sweaters and jackets are out and eye candy is not. I'm glad its now cooler, and this officially means I can take out our AC units this weekend. Manual labor!

Our friends Tim and Carrie were here 2 weekends ago, and we all hung out in the city. Good times were had, especially at Dinosaur BBQ that Saturday night. Thank god for ribs. Tim's friend Brian was with us as well. He had the novel idea of flying down here at 6:30 in the morning on Saturday to meet up with us. Dude was a champ, hung with us the entire time and didn't pass out until a rerun of Grey's Anatomy was on later that night. I don't blame him.

This past Saturday saw some funny ass comedians at the Comedians of Comedy show at the Fillmore. Nothing like getting Paton Oswalds' view on George Lucas, Brian Posehns' thoughts on female farting, Eugene Mermans' filling out of his Classmates.com application, and Maria Bamford just going crazy. Hilarious show all around.

That brings us back to the present. Which is now the past. What will happen in the future? Maybe peace, maybe tacos. Since I'm hungry, I vote tacos.

Well, since I've been told by a few people that if I have I a Live Journal I should post to it, so I guess I will. I am always a sucker for logic.

Not to much to report on though. Still in NYC and loving it. Spring has fully come and it's seriously nice out. It sucks that in a month it's going to be ridiculously hot and I'll be spending every night in front of my air conditioner like it's a TV with porn on.

Major disappointment in the Sabres Eastern Conference Finals series with Ottawa. Apparently the boys don't realize that winning this series will put them in the Stanley Cup Finals, so they've decided to lose the first 3 games. Well, here's to baseball and golf.

Hit up the NYC Dinosaur BBQ on Saturday night with Brooke and a bunch of friends. Thank god there's one here or I might be thinner. Some serious good eats, but I failed to pick a bottle of their sauce again. I'm blaming either my lack of passion for bbq, or that I have no money.

Brooke and I will be back in the Buffalo/Rochester area for a week in late July. Definitely looking forward to that. Golf, friends, wings, Tahou's, family and traffic. God I don't miss driving.

Alright, that's all I got for now. If you're lucky, I wont wait another 6 months to post. See you on Labor Day.

Yeah. Made it on Brooke's new MacBook.

Click the image a few times to expand it out. It's worth it.

It's after midnight and I was bored.

So, for your enjoyment, three of the best strips Corey, Pete and I did for Lake Effect.

Well, September is over.

If you want to hang with me, give me a ring. That's if you live in NYC. For all you Buffalo people, you'll have to wait until Thanksgiving. Unless you want to come down here and visit me. (Gives innocent shrug and slightly higher pitched voice, a la Tim Konieczny.)

Well, here it goes...

In a week and 3 days it will be Brooke and my 3 year anniversary. On that day we are celebrating by going out to Shea Stadium to see the Braves visit the Mets. Should be a fantastic night, -as long as it doesn't rain -and then we will be heading home to sleep. 'Cause we will be tired.

Then, 3 days after that (9/8,) we head off to Buffalo to be in a friends wedding on that Saturday. It will be a raucous night of boozing and celebrating and doing Ron Burgundy/Ricky Bobby impersonations. Then we fly back to NYC on that Sunday evening, get home, and then sleep. 'Cause we will be tired.

Then, one week after the wedding, my parents are most likely coming down to visit Brooke and I, and to take advantage of us living in such a "happening" place. They will be coming in sometime on that Friday evening (9/15,) and then will be departing two days after on Sunday (9/17.) After we see them off to the airport, we will come home and sleep. 'Cause we will be tired.

Then, on that following Tuesday (9/19,) it is Brooke's birthday. Nothing planned for it yet, but if anything does happen it will most likely go down on the weekend before. She'll be 914, yet she doesn't look a day over 25.

The weekend after my parents visit (9/22,) it is Rosh Hashanah, and Brooke will be doing her "Jew" thing. She'll be attending services and maybe making a Rosh Hashanah meal (which, if I remember correctly, is pretty good.) Afterward we will relax for a bit on Sunday (the good old Catholic sabbath,) and then head to The Flaming Lips concert at the Hammerstein Ballroon. Then we will come home tired and deaf to sleep. 'Cause we will...

Then, and maybe finally, the final weekend of September (9/29,) we head back off to Buffalo for another wedding (one that Brooke is in and I am not, thank god.) Once again it will be another night of boozing and celebrating and doing Ron Burgundy/Ricky Bobby impersonations. Then that Sunday, we fly back to NYC and get home to do whatever the hell we want. 'Cause we both have Monday (10/2) off because of Yom Kippur. We can sleep in and hang out and do whatever we want, except for Brooke because she has to fast. Sucks for her. :-P

Then it's October and Hockey season starts. So that's excellent.

Anyways, moral of the story is, if you want to hang out with me, do it within the next week or sometime in October. September is apparently right out.

Well, we are now in NYC. We've been here almost a week and it is pretty nutso, but good.

No internet or cable until the 13th which is bunk, but what the hell can you do. We've been going to an internet cafe a couple blocks from us on Steinway everday day or two to keep up with news and job hunt. My resume is on so many websites, I can't keep track of them. If anyone is in NYC and wants to give me a job, that'd be fantastic.

Anyways, as soon as internet is up an running, there will be postings of pictures of the new place and the area around. It's nice, lots of shops and restaurants and places to clean your clothes. Ahh... clean clothes.

Alrighty, well give me a ring if you're in ever in town or just wanna say hey.
