I have decided to record thus far the things that J and I have done in New York (in no particular order). I suppose this is more for my sake than anyone else's, but perhaps people will find it interesting:
1 - Went to the Met (saw Egyptian, Greek, Etruscan, Roman, Byzantine, Medieval and European Pre-Renaissance)
2 - Went to the Whitney (Psychedelic Art of the 60's exhibition)
3 - Went to the Met (again because Baroque - Modern art was closed the first time we went)). We avoided the American art section like the plague.
4 - Won front row seats for a performance of "Wicked"
5 - Read "Uncle Tom's Cabin" (M)
6 - Read "Pamela" (M)
7 - Discovered the entrails of the New York Public Library and learned about the inadequacy of the 17 year old workers that pull books for patrons (M)
8 - Planned to go to The Cloisters (branch of the Met) multiple times, but always got distracted
9 - Worked on free lance design projects for Andrew Maxfield (J)
10 - Grew a beard (J - obviously)
11 - Visited a really amazing rock 'n roll photo gallery with pics of Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, Beatles, etc.
12 - Ate the worst food in the world at a cheap diner (you really "get what you pay for" in NY)
13 - Ate lunch in Central Park
14 - Watched the NY Philharmonic play a free concert in Prospect Park (Brooklyn)
15 - Watched the NY Philharmonic play a free concert in Central Park
16 - Went to the Brooklyn Art Museum (where Judy Chicago's "Dinner Party" is found, as well as a LUCE Foundation Center)
17 - Went to the MOMA (Richard Serra exhibition and permanent collection)
18 - Went to Guggenheim Museum
19 - Ate dinner at N's and SJ's. Twice.
20 - Saw "Ratatouille" in an old, vintage movie theatre
21 - Visited Times Square and didn't like it (too many people)
22 - Shopped (M shopped while J waited)
23 - Took a ferry to Statton Island (and passed the Statue of Liberty on the way)
24- Worked as a receptionist for Bank of America's corporate offices (M)
25 - Watched 4th of July fireworks on the roof of Keenan and Koseli's apartment
26 - Received a visit in our studio aparment from a cuccaracha.
27 - Stubbed/ripped up big toe on sharp Brooklyn concrete (M)
Those are all of the things I can think of at present. As you can see, we've been rather busy.
