a person in 286 photos in 2010 me showing 2010 only · show all years ...with a pre-breakfast swim! ...by promptly falling asleep on the bed like this. Photo courtesy of Meredith. Friday afternoon, we packed up our stuff... I met this guy when I was on a hill-trek in Thailand in 2005 and we've seen other a few times since! It's hard to get the grimple to sit still and cooperate when she's wriggling to lick your faces. Wednesday was our first wedding anniversary! We celebrated with a family portrait. ...our one-year wedding anniversary! I love you, good one! Thanks for spending my life with me! (I'll try to not take so many photos of you while you're eating!) That afternoon, we borrowed my mom's car and drove across southern Jersey so Meredith could attend her friend Mandy's bridal shower! ...compared to the kids' table! Three sets of Battjers! :) Blue eyed people can't take photos facing the sun! We got dressed up in our finest summer wear and headed over to Long Beach Island at half past four. Me and Kristi. ...the beach! And also dogs. Haha. Standing outside together, my brother and I realized we had accidentally coordinated outfits! Excited to be... Thanks so much for having me again, Grant & Aki! I had an amazing time! Auto timer! We met up with Aki and decided to bike over to a nearby park with... Buddies. ...we were both starting to regret our decision to wear shorts. Hahah. So relaxed and natural! Then later that afternoon, we caught the bus up to Whistler! ...we strolled around... With Tia Tequila? Back on the road... ...FOR ADVENTURE! I'm the least flexible person in the world. I have to stretch almost every day or my muscles get all short and knotty and sore. Before agreeing to head out to eat, I made Grant endure my weird morning stretching routine. Here's the move I call "old man smoking in Chinatown squat." Oh, no big deal just having morning coffee on the little back porch. Saddest reason for having extra-elbow room ever. Solo trip to Vancouver ROUND 2! After arriving at the airport, Meredith checked in at the ticket counter and the person at the counter pointed out that her passport had expired. Unfortunately, this is the last photo of Meredith and I together on this trip! As soon as you lay down on our couch, this tiny visitor jumps up to say hi. I'm usually big spoon. Later that evening, we all met back up to do a late-night walk over the Brooklyn Bridge. Wonderful! Birthday buddies! En route I ran into Ellen on the street! The men's are grey and blue! ...joined forces with Pauly & Cynthia and drove out to Queens for a day at... Pink noses! Lucky! So glad you made it! The dreaded birthday ass-vice! I love this picture! Thanks for being my boo, boo. Birthday wish! <3 ...it's just a quick walk through Chinatown to get to VEGGIE DIM SUM! Woooo! Bright-shirt contest. I tried a new place for a haircut and they have me SPOCK bangs! Still managed to meet up with Pauly on the way! Wooooo! On Monday night a bunch of us got together... <3 He gave me an early birthday present of one of his illustrations on a shirt! Taking the houndine for a walk later that evening. ...that's when you know you're almost home! The house my parent's bought is in a retirement community that has an age-minimum. Because Meredith and aren't residents, we need to be accompanied by one of my parents if we'd like to visit the pool. Couch napping. Here's me doing my impression of my father "ten minutes in the future." He laughed... Downright frosty. ...and headed crosstown to the UCB Theater. We got caught posing and our group grew. Class portrait. Family version. CONGRATULATIONS, JENNY & JOSH! ...Karen and Josh... Any time someone does it to me, I make really creepy OOOOH faces that I have absolutely no control over. Rabbit ears. Chipwich! Jeet and me. ...we were wearing matching shirts! (I look like I'm still not sure how I got tricked into this) Yes! Right before the big drop (bonus points for accidentally taking a picture of the kid over my right shoulder shitting rocks). Snaggle tooth wants another ride. How many of these photos could they possibly be selling? Time to head to the amusement park. Excuse me passing lady, would you mind taking a group picture of us all posing in the Target parking lot? Loving freedom so hard. So much fun house-sploring. Introducing MAN-MUSK, a new scent from Steven Segal. All sorts of awesome artwork in the upstairs hallway. Cowboy hats EVERYWHERE. Neato! Not the most inconspicuous bag in the world; I took a cab home. Team Hobo forever. The fact that there are huge lots of open real estate between the beach and a running subway line is shocking to me. Too much? Party time, incorporated. Later that night Edie got dropped off at our place! Beach hair! We packed up our things a little before four. Buds. Next stop, Nerd Beach. We managed to leave the apartment early on Saturday to head to Far Rockaway! A housewarming vase...
