Brilliance

“I can be alone, yeah, I can watch a sunset on my own, I can be alone, yeah, I can watch the sunset on my own.” “We’re not the people that we thought we’d be.” You’re right, we’re better.

Merry Happy…

CA Friends from Afar!

This is week is jammed pack with fun to-do things! All of which, basically revolve around the land we know as California. Visitors for afar this week include Snehal, who is here on vacation with his wife. We're gonna grab dinner at a vegetarian restaurant on Wednesday. Then Dani and Lauren arrive on Friday to give the whole New York sha-bam a go! It'll be fun.

Let's see...what to blog about...
Nothing as of now...I'll jump back a little later!

Hmmm....

I love it when I think things are funny, and I love it even more when other people think they’re funny too. For example, “Charlie bit my finger”, the video posted in the post previous to this one is hilarious. I die from not being able to breathe every time I watch it. Morgan called me this evening, after a few conversations we some how ended up on “Charlie bit my finger” and she about died from suffocation as well!

Well I guess…I’ll blog about my day, since I don’t really have any thoughts to write besides the fact that I’m still sad that Samantha Power resigned from the Obama campaign. I mean come on…really? She was way too brilliant, and way to gifted to not be one of Obama’s political advisors…and this is coming from Clinton fan. Power made a mistake, she called Hillary a “monster” …name calling shouldn’t lead to the termination (forced resignation) of someone’s political career. Stick and stones…Obama…sticks and stones, Power deserves to continue working on your campaign. Power is emotional about what she does…you can’t blame her for developing animosity against her opponent. No one wants to lose and after losing Texas, Ohio, and RI Power was really bitter. Anyways…I still think Clinton has a good fight in her, and I hope Clinton wins this thing!

Subject change:
Today was a beautiful day in the city. I started out with a Chinese brunch with friends down in China town, followed by ice-cream at pinkberry and a stroll through Soho, with a 3 hour finale at the dog park in Union Square. It was so much fun to sit back in the sun and watch the dogs play. I love how much money people spend on dog accessions, especially here in NYC. They love to show off, sweaters galore. One man had a little jacket with rhinestones and a fur hood.

I’m really looking forward to this week. It’s going to be fun! I’ve got two different sets of friends that will be here from California, it’ll be the first time I’ve seen Monterey friends since May—so you can only imagine how excited I must be!

Trying to be really vague…

I’ve been MIA for awhile and a lot of that has to deal with how busy I’ve been this past week (and of course, not having internet at home). This week has been a wild ride. Rather it be work, politics (Clinton making a much needed comeback), or basically anything to do with anything. I haven’t really had time for anything, and I definitely need to do laundry. (I’m not coping out, I’ll get around to everything…I promise)

My thoughts on the week are so varied that I can’t even begin to explain what I actually am thinking. It’s somewhere between learning more than ever in PR with an internet start up company that by the way is HUGE.

I can’t believe how lucky I am to just fall into a strange place in life. Great people, great learning experiences, great everything…the list just goes on and on, and on….and on…

For now…I’m gonna go, but I’ll leave you with two really funny videos that a friend sent me. I about died laughing on both of them, but you have to watch the top one first!:

Texas-Ohio

Why do we all have those days when the world seems so stressful? Tech problems at work (that lasted 9 hours…I wanted to take my pen and poke out my eyeballs as I beat my head over the table…ok a bit of an exaggeration…it wasn’t really all that bad and it felt awesome when we solved all 50 tech problems).

But the real thing that is totally stressing me out is the Texas-Ohio showdown for the democratic presidential bid…come on Clinton we all have hope in you! Man I really feel like I could use a beer, hell make it a keg, and if Clinton wins tomorrow there will be celebration!

GO CLINTON GO!

A Black Umbrella

A friend of mine once wrote a story about a black umbrella rolling through the sky being blown by the wind, and how it related to being new. What a beautiful symbolic sentence, and story…its pure genius.

Today was a strange day, an ordinary yet strange day. Today I was that black umbrella rolling romantically through the wind. Nothing out of the blue happened, nothing new, everything was familiar, all was familiar, but for some awkward reason I was completely disoriented and unfamiliar with my daily routine. I felt like I had no idea where I was…who I was…where I was going…I felt new, I felt like a black umbrella being blown by the wind in a direction I’ve never been.

As I sat there lost, not knowing what to do I was in complete peace. I knew that I was a black umbrella and that life was more romantic and beautiful than I sometimes perceive it to be. Feeling like a black umbrella was a moment of peace, a moment I’m not willing to give up. It feels so surreal so feel new again, it felt so surreal to be blown through the sky by a wind that took me in a direction that I have not yet been. Lee, I think I finally understand what A black umbrella rolling through the wind is. And when I say understand, I think its something that only you and I understand...we tend to do that often.

I love it...

I don't have a TV, so I'm a little behind the loop. But, man...these are great....
