let's go to the fair!

the dutchess county fair! it's the biggest fair in the state!

since the beach was a bust, adrianne and i were stuck inside. that is, until harrison called saying he, andy and jon were going to the dutchess county fair. adrianne, who is from dutchess county, and i burst into action and were out the door headed to brooklyn to catch a ride upstate. we made it into the fair in a flash, thanks to andy's driving, and we were on to the midway. there was food, livestock, and, of course, rides. i convinced adrianne to join me on the cliff hanger. look at us. we're flying!

after gorging on a smorgasbord of fair food, including corndogs, french fries, roasted corn dipped in a vat of butter, caramel apples, hot roast beef sandwiches, and apple crisp sundaes, we made our way to the shopping tents. there, andy bought a sharp brown vest and the rest of the boys tried on cowboy hats. "hey there, buck-a-roo."

after the fair, we all visited the pasquarelli compound where we enjoyed some rousing games of scrabble and scategories. the next morning, adrianne's dad made some delicious eggs for breakfast and we were out the door headed back to the city.

we're going to the beach, beach, beach...

adrianne and i are going to long beach on saturday. who's in?

update: it was cold and rainy on saturday so instead of going to the beach we went to the dutchess county fair with andy, harrison, and jon. see next post for details.

boredom leads to creativity...cont.

my sister is an optometrist. if she ever decides to open her own eye-care business, maybe she could use this as her logo.

boredom leads to creativity

i made a logo for a...color mode? whatever, it looks cool. and i'm sure you, readers, will enjoy this more than that lousy "love train" image i used on the last post.

next stop...

overheard in grand central:
(15 minutes before departure)
adrianne: we'd better go. i want to make sure i get a good seat.
jordan: it's 8:30 and you're going to poughkeepsie.
adrianne: it's a popular destination.
jordan: you're a destination.
adrianne: ...on the love train.

eeennd scene!

movie night at bryant park

a panarama and extreme close-up of the scene at bryant park last night. the park was showing a shot in the dark, the first inspector clouseau film.

ps. this is before the "dooshbag" spanish family of four squeezed into the two feet of space behind us with 2 newly purchased hugo boss cashmere blankets.

Tuesday: I have an air conditioner!

the temperature is supposed to hit triple digits in the city and remain there for the next few days. as a result i plan on doing nothing but this for that same time period.

for you other new yorkers who are concerned i may be causing the next black-out i want to let you know i am following con ed's instructions and keeping the thermostat at a polar 78 degrees. brrrr!
