On the streets where you live

Walking down the street; I'm wondering how long it will take me not to notice all the trash in the streets; the cigarette butts, tossed flyers, the abandoned plastic bottles, cans and paper cups.
Each footfall brings me further along and I can see clearly what it is that is beautiful about the city. I spend hours strolling around town when I get here. First of all it helps to get over the jet lag by sweating out the poisons and secondly it get my street sense and timing back. once you are back in tune with the rythms of the city then you are able to move freely and stop worrying about the obstacles around you. If you can see the patterns in the movemnt of people, bicycles and rogue taxis than you can focus on the things that will present themselves to you.

Here are some pictures I took today.


What's Christmas in New York without Frosty, Bagels and wonderful sunsets.

Boids, boids everywhere- New york's bravest.

I know it says 'snappy' comebacks but I'm gonna write a 'sappy' comeback just cuz well, its Christmas and besides any girl named Pink is allowed!

When you see Stompy, please tell that green blob that I miss him. Please squeeze him (make sure no monster goo splurts out on you) and give him kisses from me! Wish him and his Vixen a Very Scary Christmas from me.

And as for you, my newest of friends, I wish you a wonderful 2008 full of love, laughter and lude & lacivious indulgences! Well, hey, any friend of the monster...
