Today was slow and so were the past couple days..Ive been sick with some sort of allergy/cold combination and feel like ive just been floating around in the clouds.

Last week i spent the majority of a day with a couple coworkers at the infamous Coyote Ugly. One of the girls that works behind the bar at Tonic just got a job there and we came to visit her to congratulate. Let me just tell you that place is quite the piece of work. The entire place is made of PLYWOOD. I mean everything. The bar, tables, booths, even the thing ( thats normally ceramic) that sits on top of the toilet tank was plywood. There was duct tape wrapped around the drafts. The place is high class, full of hot chicks and has probably the cheapest beers in the city. The bartender grabbed my PBR out of a big blue igloo ice chest sitting on the floor, and i felt at home. Needless to say I will inevitably be back to support my friend while she dances on the bar and feeds me "pussy juice." ( its a shot!) This place is my new guilty pleasure.

I spent most of the weekend with my friend Angie, which I stupidly didnt document. Im going to have to get used to getting into the habit of that....it was fun..we stayed out way too late for her birthday, and I had to work a double at Tonic the next day which was a nightmare. Not only cause it was slow ( I had three tables all morning and didnt even have to stay for my night shift!) , but because I was overwhelmingly tired and sneezy. Tomorrow Im off and will probably do a LOT of nothing. Hopefully thats all I need to get better. Ill practice making origami owls.

Today I was at Love Brigade. Quite a slow day, but I feel like Im helping out a little still. I just hope that with one day a week I can still be fulfilled as well, and continue learning. That is SO incredibly important to me, if not, I need to move on.

Heres my to do list, well the most important things:
-get my New York ID. To make it official.
-research certification courses.
-visit with an academic adviser at FIT.
THEN:
-visit the whitney and the guggenheim. yeah, i havent done that yet.

A view of the office and Alyssa (my boss) with her electronic body part :o)

Angie and Caitlin bein creepers in one of the prettiest bars Ive ever seen. The place was full with this gorgeous polished cherry wood, and gold wallpaper. The bartenders looked like greasers. mmm.

I live in these.


OH! im in the f/w 09 LB collection! wowzers.
