The story of America

I like this story. It makes me feel connected, and happy that I was raised in Queens.

Lonely Veronica

This is awesome in so many ways...

Voodoo on the BQE

Let me put you in the setting: 8:58am on the way to the BQE from the LIE. You know that tunnel like strip next to the cemetary? So that is where I was, in a shit-ton of traffic, when I decide to change lanes. The SUV taxi in the lane next speeds up because he doesn't want to let me in, of course. The rest happens in quick succession: I give him the finger, he gives me the finger. I tell him to go fuck himself. He pulls out a wooden snake from his car and shakes it at me. Are you kidding me?! Yes- THAT HAPPENED. I yell, "oooh wow, fucking voodoo huh?" to which he gets furious. I proceed say, "yeah? really?" and without thinking open up the bag of cactus potting soil on the passenger seat next to me. Why was it there you ask? I put Fred (my baby cactus at work) into his new pot yesterday, so the bag is still in my car. I shove my hand into the bag, surrounding cars beeping all the while, and pull out of fistful of dirt. I throw it at his car, open windows and all. More cursing and fingers ensue for a second longer, and then we drive off.

I don't know about that guy, but it kind of made my day.

Baby bad-ass

My hero.

Spa Castle!

sauna valley!
This is where the naked ladies hung out.
bade pool! I still don't know what bade means.

It's a magical place, and it's in Whitestone, Queens! My friend Lisa and I were very excited to go to this place since we've been looking at pictures of it online for so long now (and hearing wonder tales from our friends). I couldn't quite picture what it would actually be like, however. What it was like was an awesome cult from the future, complete with sherbet-colored uniforms and a buffet. Needless to say the place was awesome. The bade pools massaged all parts of your body with the touch of a button, and the saunas were themed by color/temperature and gem types?! There were a lot of crystals and gems...and people lying on the ground...and naked women...My favorite feature is not having to carry anything with you ever. You have these fake watch things that control everything (lockers). You even pay for all your food with them, which made me feel like I was in college again with my meal card.

anwyay, Spa Castle rocks my socks.

From NY to the Bay yo.

N.A.S.A. with special guests (monsters, aliens and hot chicks). I went to see N.A.S.A. last night at the Bowery Ballroom - a-m-a-z-i-n-g. Fat Lip from Pharcyde was there and my little 11 year old girl dreams came true when he sang "Passin' Me By". The night was basically a dancing frenzy, culminating in the crowd storming the stage to dance their asses off. What else can I say? That shit was dope.

Little piece of heaven

I would like to see this scene next to one of my cats, or maybe just a baby tray of food sitting atop their fuzzy heads...
