Listening to Illmatic on the R train

I'm sorry faithful readers (I think there are some of you) for slacking in the updates. The first reason is that technically I was participating in a Google fast of sorts (which of course includes blogger) for a Digital Media class assignment, although in actuality I was slacking ALL over the place. The second reason is that my life has been pretty calm and uneventful as I was adjusting to classes, and then fasting for Yom Kippur.


I've had time to take in new delicious tastes (Porchetta sandwiches mmmm), I spent some time with a new friend reading in a cafe in Chelsea, I discovered that St Marks Books on my corner is awesome, although the lox spread at my local bagel joint is NOT (It's no Murrays) and I've realized the awesomeness of 3 dollar wine at Trader Joes.

I also finally got to experience the R train above ground as I went to visit my cousin in Park Slope, which was something I had been looking forward to for a while.

Crossing the Manhattan Bridge

This coming week will involve lots of intense work, and then Thursday I have some very special guests coming to visit, and one super special one in particular who will be staying with me. It promises to be a VERY exciting weekend!
