The April Roundup

Here are a lot of random nights out that didn't have enough pics to merrit their own entry but are still fun enough to be included.

Wednesday April 2nd

deb au-yeung, tweedles — The Tweedles, Sonya & Jen (shown here with Deb), came down to visit from Canada.

eric g, tara — Tara and Eric.

Wednesday, April 9th

betsy, me — Brian Battjer and Betsy Brown at Bowery Bar.

betsy — Betsy Brown with Brian Battjer's bum at Bowery Bar (I spilled my drink in my chair and then forgot about it and sat in it. That's why my bum is wet.)

This is Stephanie - I met her online and we've been IMing for a long time and I finally randomly ran into her when I when to meet up with Caitlin and Betsy.

Friday, April 11th

sarah d — Sarah decided to throw a Hawaiian party at her pad. (on a side note, when I asked Tara if she wanted to go to a "Hawaiian Party" with me she asked "Do I have to dress Hawaiian?" Me, "Um, I think so." Tara, "So does the girl that's throwing this party have big boobs?" Me, "Yeah, how'd you know?" Tara, "Because if I had big boobs I'd throw Hawaiian parties all the time and show them off.")

emily s, me, tara, tiffany — Emily, Tara, Tiff and me (look at Emily getting all frisky with my coco-jugs).

The old "slip the pineapple up your shirt" party trick. (Check out homeboy in the foreground, he totally knew what was up).

tara — Tee-hee-hee.

Tuesday, April 15th

vin — Vin and I were tooling around the East Village and we deciding to pop into Ace Bar...where (like Dennis Crowley before us) we were promptly sucked into playing two solid hours of Big Buck Hunter II.

Double Buck Bonus!

Look, see how my hair's wet? The real buck hunting action gets so intense I actually broke a sweat.

vin — Now that's what I call "Sportman's Paradise!"

Friday, April 18th

grant — Before heading over to Piano's for Karen's party - Grant, Erica, Tara and myself went over to AdultWorld to visit Gibby.

grant, tara — In this pic I was trying to capture both Grant and Tara making faces of that twat in the white headband (you think the headband's bad, you should've seen how long his "fashion mullet" was in the back), but my camera went off too soon.

"Houston...we have mullet."

karen landes, me — After AdultWorld we went over to Karen Marsala's birthday. Here's me and Karen Landes.

karen marsala, me — And here's me and the birthday girl! Right after I took this picture - the batteries in my new camera crapped out (don't worry, I've since bought the longer lasting kind). I'm gonna be posting more pics here soon from other peoples' cams (but in the meantime you can just check out the pics from Karen's birthday last year.)

Sunday, April 20th

My parents were on vacation in Hawaii, but my mom still managed to have the "little something" she mailed to me before leaving arrive at my apartment the day before Easter. Awww.

The package turned out to be this cute lil' Easter candy sampler. Who's mom's better than that, eh?

grandma, uncle wayne — Not wanting to spend Easter alone in NYC, I hopped on a train and headed 20 minutes away to Clark, NJ to have Easter dinner with my grandparents and my cousins, the Carricks. Here's my Uncle Wayne and Grandma working on the bird.

zoe — And this is their monkey-faced dog, Zoey. Hahaha.

Monday, April 21st

On Monday night I went to a new club called Manray for the premiere party of a movie called City of Ghosts. Here's the view of the club from up in the dj booth with Matty.

brenda, emma, lorelei — Brenda, Emma, Cy, and Lo.

emma, matty matt — Matty (making the best face ever) with Emma.

Monday, April 24th

me, vin — On Monday night I headed to the "all lit up" Indian restaurant near the corner of 1st Ave and 6th Street for Vin's birthday! Vin's birthday this year was much more low-key than last year's sordid affair. Here's me and the birthday boy.

Indian fish!
