Weekend Update

Friday we went to Snaxx (shocker) at 11:30 and it was way too crowded, plus I only knew about four of the people in the room. Somehow we ended up going upstairs and started playing pool. All of a sudden all of our friends showed up and everyone was hanging out upstairs. The jukebox was kicking out good songs and there was plenty of room to move. I actually stayed out til 1 which on a school night is rare.

It was a lot of fun. I think Gustavo was mad 'cause we weren't downstairs but it was juts too fucking crowded.

Sunday, my moms and I went to PS1 for Jen DeNike's coloring book project. They had taken Edward Munch and Tracey Emin drawings and made a coloring book for kids out of them. The room was full of kids and there were a series of performances. My mom and I sat down and colored. We kept having to ask little kids to borrow their markers, cause some kids had lots of colors.

We put my moms on the wall.

After that Moms and I went out for Soup Dumplings and enjoyed the afternoon. A lovely day. To cap it off -- went by the Eagle with Stew. Had to borrow Joe's sweat shirt cause I was freezing. It filled up but I'd had enough by 8 and came home.

Today's a sort of day off. One artist meeting and then I'm free for the day.

It was totally too crowded. Why is it that the parties that attact the biggest guys are in the smallest bars? (Dugout, Snaxx, Big Lug) Oh well, at least you get to rub up against a few hotties.

I wasn't mad, Rich was.
I like when people stay and have a good time.
I've been trying to get the upstairs to ourselfs for a while but the owners don't want it. I even tried that night to get the music from downstairs to play upstairs but the str8 bartender refused. I'm glad that you like the music that was playing but it wasn't the jukebox. Later Corey and I put some money in it and the Asian girl bartender had to switch from what was playing to the jukebox.
Anyway.... it's alwyas good to see you. Big hug.

I wasn't mad, Rich was, because he was playing for an empty room. Everybody was upstairs.
Anyway it's always good to see you.
Big hug.

I learned on St. Patty's day that the good people at the west side tavern don't like it when you go upstairs to the bathroom without a shirt on. The bartender chased me into the bathroom to tell me. Who knew?

Yay! I'm so happy to hear the arts are alive and being taught to children.

Brilliant touch and kudos to whomever thought that Edvard Munch and Tracy Emin (a newfound favorite of mine from a recent trip to the Tate) would be excellent coloring book companions!
