Happy Birthday THE Kristen!!!!
Still trying to wrap my brain around 74 not being considered a warm temperature. I mean, it's not hot, not even when it's a muggy 74, but it is shorts weather.
We have scraps of orb peeking through the clouds, but I don't expect it to last. And I envy all the people with proper crisp fall weather. I don't mind Seattle winters as such, though they could stand to be a bit colder, but the lack of crispness to our falls does get depressing. Though you could argue that three months' worth of mostly sunny and 70's in the summer is a fair trade for practically no sunny and 50's and 60's in the fall.
Hrm, all of my staple Manhattan brunch places are on the Lower East Side. Virage, on 2nd Ave/7th St is very good. Essex (Essex/Rivington) has amazing food, but tends to be full of loud drunken cokeheads.
I go to the east side so rarely that I'm kind of afraid of it. I think I might do a random diner...maybe Diner at 9th & 14th.
I think we're going to Hugo's! I have had Aleve, Imitrex and have an icepack on my head, trying to turbo-kill the deathly migraine I got this morning so I'll be good to go when our friends driving here from Santa Monica show up for brunch.
Project for the hivebrain:
I just got the following desperate appeal from my sister -
so...i have a concert with the racine symphony on friday, october 28th. since it is halloween themed music (we're playing the theme from ET, harry potter, night on bald mountain, etc) they have asked us to wear costumes to the concert. now, normally that would be really lame but here's the catch. they are going to have a vote and the orchestra member with the best costume gets their check DOUBLED!!!!!! everyone knows how broke i am, so i am willing to go all out for this costume. bear in mind i have to be able to play in it. i was trying to come up with something that was tied into the concert like being ET or hermione or something, but it has to be pretty spectacular i think.
Ideas?
I want to go to Hugos!
I already got my hair cut and went to the gorcery store. Now I should be cleaning before I take the cat to the vet, but I think instead I may nap, after I finish watching last night Numb3rs.
I have acheived cleanliness and groceries. Now I am getting some food and have officially bagged the idea of heading in early to the city.
What are you going to do in the city, msbelle?
a concert.
