The wrap up of my weekend and some of the things I should have done:
- Spent time with friends on Friday night celebrating my birthday by wandering aimlessly from bar to bar in the east village and than eating a lovely raspberry tart after they sang Happy Birthday to me.
- Experiencing the DADA and Print show at the MoMA and enjoying the peacefulness of NOT being at work.
- Hitting up the Rockabilly Hot Rod Car show underneath the BQE. It is an interesting subculture that I have never really associated with, but there were cute boys and fun looking cars to keep me busy.
- Eating the BEST Banana chocolate chip muffin with my ex-boyfriend and washing it done with tasty iced coffee. This muffin place is a small booth inside the Essex street market. It is so soft and warm and seems to melt in your mouth. This event followed with him giving me a Ryan McGinness poster I had wanted and me being very excited!
- Spending the entire night lounging in bed watching V for Vendetta (FYI: it isn't good) and not feeling guilty that I wasn't out partying
Events of today:
- Seeing Little Miss Sunshine and hoping the L train runs so I can get there without taking twenty million different subways.
- Doing laundry and cleaning my room
- Going out to dinner with my friend Claire and having her stay over
Things I didn't do this weekend thus far:
- Go to the Jewish Museum to see the Eva Hesse Show
- Go food shopping
- Join the YMCA
Lastly here are a few things I recently acquired including my WONDERFUL grey boots from Anthropologie, an enormous black bag from H&M that holds everything, and a lovely print from a girl selling them in Union Square.
Hi Jessica!!! Thanks for checking out my blog - especially because I got to come across your blog! :) That print is awesome, oh man will the seller be there daily do you think, or was this a one time thing? Also, those black suede boots down below are AWESOME!!!! I think those are now my 2006/07 dream! :)

hey there! love the h&m bag. i actually just purchased it in red myself. i love it! yours looks way shiny though, shinier than the only other black one i saw in the store, which was selling for $99.90. is that what you got? mine is nice 'n' shiny, not real leather and was $29.90. i sorta wish they'd had it in black, but oh well. i dig colors. end ramble. =)

bummer, I was in Brooklyn and it was my birthday recently too!..I think it was just that kind of weekend....we didn't do a thing. Basically, we just walked around and ate and drank...wondering why we had no energy! But the DADA show is great...I saw it when I was in Paris. I didn't realize it made it over here. It's a treat.
