August 4, 2011 - Brooklyn

I took this photo on the way home from dinner at the intersection of Coney Island Ave & Cortelyou Rd. There's nothing specifically interesting about it, it's just my neighborhood in the middle of Brooklyn. But even after living in NYC for twenty years, it still excites me that I'm in this crazy city and that this is my everyday world.

August 3, 2011 - Flashback!

One of my favorite photos... Howard and Sean from our trip to the Hamptons in August, 2007. Tom, the dogs & I drove out for an overnight getaway to celebrate Sean's birthday and we all had a great time!

August 2, 2011 - Random Subway Photo

Hmm - this is one of those photos that happened because I was on the train and thinking, "I haven't taken any pictures today. I better take one now just to make sure I don't forget." Ta-da.

August 1, 2011 - We're Ready to Go Outside!

I had the dogs wait at the top of the back stairs while I was unlocking the door so they could go out... they wanted me to move faster (and stop taking their picture!)

July 31, 2011 - Howard is Chillaxed

I don't know if Howard is really watching TV, but he sure knows how to get comfortable on the sofa!

July 30, 2011 - VA Road-trip

Colleen did a show in Arlington, VA, so Tom and I travelled down with her for a very quick Saturday-Sunday road-trip. The show was at the Signature Theater in the Village at Shirlington (which is a cute little 4 block mini-town development with restaurants and shops) and afterwards we went to the Village's Irish pub* with our dear friend Pat for Irish nachos** and celebratory drinks! I don't remember what Colleen was showing Pat in this photo, but the night was full of laughs and we had a great time.

* the Village boasts a couple dozen restaurants in a very small area, and they all have the same sort of "This is the - fill in the blank - place" feeling. Besides "the Irish Pub place," we went to Guapos ("This is the Mexican place") for lunch, and Carlye Grand Cafe ("This is the Nice Restaurant place") for dinner, but we also saw the Italian place, the Thai place, the Bistro place, the Burger place, the Coffee place, the Yogurt place and more!

** Irish nachos are basically potato skins with cheese, sour cream etc etc... I don't really care what they're called - other than regular nachos, and chili, these might be my favorite food.

July 29 - Cheers!

From dinner at the Farm with Tom!
