Despite being characterized by the mainstream media as a bunch of whining hippies, we saw a huge diversity of intelligent and clean people. We left the park a little after 9pm... First stop, Mantis! They were fixing the sign behind our hotel. Afterwards, we cruised around some more hoping inspiration would strike twice and we're disappointed when we stumbled upon Maple Lanes (which has since closed!). I don't know if bowling can fix a freak-out, but it probably can't hurt it! Nothing makes me happier than sunshine on my birthday! We'd sublet our East Village apartment and rented a house out on Beach 90 in Rockaway Beach. My birthday was move-in day! The waves got huge at 4pm and we stayed until 6:30! ...and we drove out to Rockaway! I made it to the beach a little before noon. Ok! THANK YOU FOR COMING TO MY PAR-TEEEEEEEEE! ...a puppet show could be performed! ...it's only a matter of time before someone (probably Andrew Borin?) understands that the mouths should be ripped out... Sarah had a bunch of recent internet memes rasterized and mounted to cardboard (as per usual). Antoine, hide yo kids! On Thursday night Brian Schechter invited me to see Stefan Merrill Block read from his new book! Solid. ONE MORE TIME! *whew* And before noon... Placo derm = plate skin! Head checks? GREAT WHITE BOUNDARY. Time to get back on... ...the PechaKucha night ticket booth! Poster in the elevator !....happy birthdaaaaaaaaaaaay. Dogs are so illiterate. 7th Street's shit-protesting has escalated into homemade sign-making! On Thursday evening I went to an office party down the street from my work... There was freezing rain overnight and in the morning, everything was covered in icicles!
