Dear New York,
I have a confession. I’ve never thought much of you. I’m sorry, you always seemed like a tremendously overpriced city on a small rock with some large, tall buildings jockeying for prominence. Driving back from New Jersey the other night, I finally realized how pretty you can be. And don’t even get me started on your subway system. I fucking love that thing. It’s like...

Things I Have Done Since Landing in New York:
ate noodles and lychee ice cream in Chinatown
had green tea ice cream at Mitsuwa
spent most of a day at MoMA/the design store
went on the Liberty/Ellis Island tour
walked the Brooklyn Bridge
visited the 9/11 memorial
ate lunch at THE best Thai restaurant I’ve ever been to (including ones in Thailand), called Sripaphai. I could be making a hash of that spelling, but it’s in...

And a quick note to say that while I’ve been absent for some time now, I’m going to be EVEN MORE absent. Because I’m going on vacation to New York and DC and I am going to freeze and die.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS.

Work scheduled me for four hours on Christmas Eve. It’s elevator duty. I would literally stand there for four hours and encourage people to use the escalators so the elevators aren’t overloaded. Fuck that noise. I’m calling in.
Sidenote: I replaced the water pump in our washer all on my own!
It would be much more acceptable for me to be awake right now if I didn’t have a 6:45 shift in a few hours.

How awful! Surprise spice attack.
This does, unfortunately, happen far too often in this household. Apparently my dad left the spoon soaking in some hot sauce. Yesterday.
I hate Thai bird chili.

Bed now because I have work tomorrow.
Glorious, glorious work! I’ve missed work!
Granted, I’ll be hating life in about 20 hours, but whatever.

oh snap.
Somehow, my quiet, contented existence has attracted all kinds of unwanted interest. Makes me wonder if there’s some hole I can duck into and let it all pass by.

Who the FUCK writes the lyrics to Snow Patrol’s “You Could be Happy” in a fucking Christmas card? Am I supposed to take them at face value? That you think I can go after anything I want? Or am I supposed to be looking at the song as a whole? Why are you doing this now? Don’t you have a girlfriend? Go shower her with your half-baked indie boy sentiment. I don’t want...
I’ve just managed to resurrect my college-era laptop. It’s an amazingly, terrifyingly detailed time capsule. It would seem my primary interests circa May 2010 were Top Gear, youtube, and basketball. Also, I looked up a number of crochet patterns. My, how we’ve grown. I learned how to knit and spend all my time looking at knitting patterns now.
Oh, so you’re looking for an Asian girlfriend? Fuck off, bitch. I am not my race.

Because I trust you guys to not tell anyone,
Legoland is located in Lakeland, FL.
Legoland announced they’re adding a water park.
I very nearly asked the boy how that was gonna work seeing as how Lakeland is landlocked.
It seems I confused “water park” for “beach” or “ocean”.
Don’t tell me you’ve never done that.
