Huh. Two people climbed the NY Times building today. One was Alain Robert, that French guy who keeps climbing tall buildings. He said he did it to bring attention to global warming. The other was a guy from Brooklyn that doesn't have a history of climbing buildings and said he did it to bring attention to malaria. (edit: OK, he says he's climbed the Hearst Tower, but no one's ever seen him doing it before.)
(Actually, my first reaction to that building was, "I bet I could climb that." It's just so clearly climbable.)
was it you that had the link to that site where you register to not get paper catalogs? I lost that URL in the crashes of ought eight.
I believe it's called Catalog Choice, ita. They've become a sponsor of my local NPR station.
Yay climbing! I climbed tonight, although not a NY Times building, just walls. And then I had an excellent beer and an excellent steak salad. Nom nom nom.

get all those credit card offers? It's so nice to stop having that shit arrive every day. Now if I could only get my actual credit cards to stop sending me those freaking checks every two weeks.
Man, it's hot already. And humid. Yesterday we had crazy winds and today there is barely a breeze.
And Casino Drive has been scratched from the Belmont - very disappointing.

I am so fucking tired, I don't even know. I slept later this morning than the last couple (7:30!), but I didn't go to bed until nearly 1 after the Yankees game (kind of a boring game, and they lost). I stayed in bed a while longer, but it didn't really help. At least I had iced coffee in the fridge already, but still.

morning - mac and I were up til midnight playing Pokemon. I was very afraid when he was up at 6:10, but he laid down with me and stayed asleep until 8. I have been in bed since, not fully asleep, but restful Doing a world of good.
At some point there will be fast food for lunch and toy shopping for mac's friend's birthday.
Hey Sheryl,
It's rainy here, kind of still want to go to the farmers market though. Afraid that I'll get paged if I go.
