new york new york

sooooooo visiting new york was fun as hell.

kicked it off with some barhopping with chang, tao and catherine for a few nights. mike liu came down to have korean bbq with a few of them and john yang...for those of you who know him. ate drunk snacks at gray's papaya two nights in a row (and would've continued if i'd been in the area more).

saw the old hello nurse play at the mercury lounge. fuckers went and got better while i was gone :) sweet show. good times.

met up with ana at the MOMA for an afternoon leading to more drinking (on my part at least) with some her friends and john yang again.

went to DBQ with what was left of the old ultimate crew...let's see if i can do this: sai, tao, gabi, goose, eunji, mikeliu, stoops, and max...did i forget anyone? i'd already eaten and just...drank.

which was the pregame to a round of golf in ft. greene park in brooklyn with christian, john yang, drew fahnle, lightshow, eytan, and matt davis. they only had 22's of old E at the bodega so i rocked two of those and i think we hit nine holes before christian, drew and i headed to white castle and the prono store somehwere in brooklyn. first time at white castle! i ate 10 sliders.

crashed at drew's that night and rolled into the village to have lunch with graham and vicki dower (how cute) and eytan at some falafel place next to the continental. good to see them.

good to see everyone.

for those of you whom i haven't told, i was there with my mom, sister, AND brother (sis lives there) so we got in to a lot of trouble on our own :) our last night there...(lewis had gone to london) the three of us went to a show at the continental and watched about four bands, closed the place (BLITZED) and rolled into st. nick's pub in harlem (~150th and st. nicholas ave.)...they play jazz. fuckin' GOOD jazz. and some old black dude was hitting on my mom...but we had to go and pack at about 3am...at which point my mom passed out instead of packing. so i packe dmostly for her, got her up and onto the supershuttle, and took her, drunk, to the airport, haha.

it was a good night.

and a great trip.

thank you all for makin' it happen.


and i WILL blog more.
