pologies

y'all. i'd really like to apologize for being somewhat delinquent in the blogosphere recently. my 'net's been wonky and i've recently become obsessed with this gr8 show FRIDAY NIGHTS LIGHTS. srsly. i sweeear i'll be beeettter when this net stuff is al figured out. THX 4 UR PATIENCE.

take a walk on the wild side

today i went on an adventure. i went for my first walk down 125th street, or, Dr. Martin Luther King Blvd. apparently some comedian has a bit about how you know where the "shotty" area of a city begins because there's a street called Martin Luther King Blvd. well, we live there. found some pretty cool things though: a few barber shops (one REALLY CLASSY LOOKING ONE, TOO!) a few chinese restaurants a few nail salons (see D J Nail in the photo which i did not take) and a few condom wrappers on the street. all in all it was pretty exciting. a few elderly black men asked me how i was doing/called me beautiful. 

ERR AND DAY

We all make mistakes, right? LIKE THIS ONE, FOR EXAMPLE!! 

ALSO, we all run errands. Today I think I'll "do laundry" in my "basement"... it costs a buck fiddy for wash and another buck fiddy for drying. 

HAPPY BELMONT.

getcher sundresses and big hats, y'all. this is no time to be TRAPPED IN SUBURBIA. 

more on cupcakes

While Gordon has an excellent point regarding Magnolia Bakery and Prime (THE BEST MOVIE IN ALL THE WORLD EVER), here's the thing: any good Prime fan will remember the point in the movie ("learn your fucking lesson day" as you may know it) when Morris learns that Magnolia Bakery DECEIVED HIM in their pie sale to him that day- either he ordered banana cream and was given lemon cream, or vice versa. Perhaps deceit of our beloved sociopath Morris is reason enough to boycott Magnolia? 

cupcakes

Last night someone sent me a link of the 10 things not to do in New York City. Some listed very obvious things such as do not for the love of god take a carriage ride through central park, don't go to the top of the empire state building (as top of the rock and rainbow room are far superior), and don't eat a pre-theater dinner in Times Square, as Hells Kitchen just below is cheaper and just better. The other "don't" probably most distressing to tourists was Magnolia Bakery. Now, this bakery holds a special place in our hearts for one reason and it is not that Carrie Bradshaw went there once, but because of Morris, our "pie-throwing sociopath" from "Prime." Heeeey MOrrrrris! Buttercup on 72nd is pretty good, though, and now they deliver to your home!
