Busy
This month has been pretty hectic.
Work has been hectic. And fun has been hectic, too.
Here are some pictures from the opening night party of the Public Theater's production of Twelfth Night.
I really love the woman crazy-dancing with the arm sling. It makes you wonder....
This weekend we traveled to the wilds of East Northport, Long Island, to celebrate the birthdays of our twin friends, Heather and Allison. I uploaded some pictures to picasa. Click on the image below to see the entire album.
How fun!
So, you know, one must bid the mandatory adieu to Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson and Ed McMahon. Many have already waxed poetic on the subject, so I will refrain. Though I will admit that my brother, sister, and I pooled our money, and the first album we ever bought was Thriller, and that we all once took break dancing lessons. Of course, I was hopeless.
Also, just when you thought it couldn't get any stupider, the New York State Senate wows us again.
Hilariously, when the State Senate Democrats were holding another session later—with their 31 members, still short of a quorum—Senator Frank Padavan (R-Queens) passed through the chambers, prompting the Democrats to call a quorum. While a Republican spokesman tells PolitickerNY that Padavan "did walk through the chamber at a time when he did not believe it had convened," Padavan "believes using his presence toward a quorum would be a 'fraud.'" Still, Democrats are saying things like "He was in and he knows the rules" and "Frank Padavan has been in the Senate since 1972. Frank Padavan did it on purpose." Padavan has signed an affidavit saying he wasn't part of the quorum—he just wanted to get a cup of coffee, though he told reporters he wanted a Coke.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! New York is going to hell in a hand basket, but it's just so funny.
Oh, and my aunt is in the hospital. She's been there almost two weeks. What a drag. I'm exhausted.
