So got in last night. Flying out of Islip is very easy and hassle-free. The party was very fun … 11 guys in Vegas, five of whom went to college together. It was an appropriate end to Dylan’s legendary bachelorhood, I think. I feel like I have had my lifetime fill of debauchery, not that […] Well, to quote girly (who is awesome), “it’s on, bitches.” I decided I could not pass up the Vegas trip. Apparently I was the not the only one who thought the $1,000 budget was rather extravagant and the best man sent out a revised budget yesterday. I’m flying out of Islip airport in Long Island, […] So my good friend Dylan is getting married in June … and I’m seriously considering not coming to the bachelor party. Lame, huh? But jeez, I just don’t see how I can afford this extravagant three-day weekend in Vegas the best man has planned. I got an email from him yesterday, saying to budget $1,000 […] I am just back from the Mica Bar, where my best nyc friend Jon had his going-away party for his corporate law firm gig. (He’s switching firms). I had an interesting discussion with his ex-secretary, who at first I mistook for a partner — she’s very smart, but never developed her own career. Now she […] Here’s a better photo of me in the tuxedo … a Manhattan in one hand, our apple martini-lovin’ new member at large in the other. And here’s one of me, H. and two other Flyers after the Manhattan half. […] Who says necklackes are just for girls? I have been wearing this, sometimes. (When you can’t think of anything interesting to say, post a photo…) I did really enjoy this Editor & Publisher story on pre-written obits. The AP has about 1,000 of them on file. The story has this gem of an anecdote: […] I went to this small little blogger meetup party Monday night, an anniversary party for the WhatISee photoblog. It was at Vintage, just around the corner from me. (There are some photos here, including one of my arm). Anyway, the funny thing wasn’t that there were other bloggers at this meetup — it was that […] Okay, after going out the past four nights in a row, I am taking it easy tonight and have been watching “Sphere” on the WB and cleaning my bathroom. Ahh, the bachelor life. Perhaps later I will stop by for a brew at Perdition, although I do have a race tomorrow. We shall see. […] So today I got my overtime $ from the West Virginia sojourn, which is great (51 hours!). But I must say I have been slacking with the running, and it all started with that same trip. Working 20 hour days isn’t exactly conducive to running, and alas once you get out of the habit in […] Okay, so the little reporters’ drink-fest I was at the other day has now made the NYT. (thanks to commenter Tom for pointing this out). Like I said before, I don’t really think the idea of reporters getting together for drinks is exactly news. But it’s a nice little story: At the crime scene, reporters […] |
