I’ve been making an effort to document the Occupy Wall Street movement. Here’s the first photo set taken the night of Fri. 10/07/11– I’m using film, so apologies for (un)timeliness!
A few seconds of Portishead

I finally saw Portishead, and it was hands down the best musical experience I’ve ever had. I was able to take a few seconds of video, which normally should never be done because it’s annoying and pointless, but this 7-second video somehow really hints at the amazingness of it all.

One of my best friends in the world, Karoleen Decastro, recently came to visit me in NYC. She said this in a note the day she left:
“I know we’re going through a lot, but as always, I am confident everything will work out. How do I know? Four years ago we talked about all the things we wanted to do, and now we’re doing them. Problem is, we always want more… Keep doing what you’re doing. Your life doesn’t need to change. It just naturally evolves, and it’s now great and will always be great. I promise.”

Sunday, September 25: I’m walking in Nolita with Karoleen. We are on a fairly empty street headed towards Bowery. A man is passing us on the sidewalk. He looks familiar. We make eye contact and I give him a confused look. He gives me a little smile.
My internal dialogue: Is that Thom Yorke? He really looks like Thom Yorke. But what would Thom Yorke be doing walking down this random street in New York on a Sunday afternoon? Plus, this guy is pretty short. And, I don’t remember Thom Yorke having a squinty eye like that, or longish hair. But, I guess I wouldn’t really know. It’s probably not Thom Yorke, moron.
It was Thom Yorke.

Aliya: “He has a drinking problem.”
Me: “How do you know?”
Aliya: “He has a beer belly.”
Me: “That doesn’t mean he has a drinking problem, dude.”
Aliya: “The belly is the problem.”

10 Reasons Why I’m the Coolest NYC Hurricane Hostess
Posted on August 26, 2011
Filed Under May I Interject?, New York, Texas | 2 Comments
1. I’m from and grew up in Corpus Christi, Texas. We get hurricanes at least every four years.
2. Again, I’m from Texas. We do not evacuate; we do not care. Fire up the (vegan) BBQ. We are stubborn and kind of ornery, sometimes. But, we are still the biggest state (Palin disqualified Alaska FOREVER) and a huge influence (W. IS FROM CONNECTICUT, REMEMBER), so not that dumb.
3. I’ve been to I-can’t-count-on-my-fingers-how-many hurricane parties, as well as have hosted them. <--medal + cookie, please
4. If you're living in New York, you're probably overreacting and need a soothing force to assure you that hurricanes are not just what you see on TV (THEY AREN'T, DUDES)--that force resides in my apartment. Yes, it's my cat.
5. Remember Katrina? Remember how the infrastructure of New Orleans collapsed? Guess what, New York. As a CITY, you were planned much more carefully! Congrats!
6. You guys. I have so many movies and I have an extra battery for my phone. I also have numerous board games and lots of “non-perishables.”
7. Do NOT vote for Rick Perry (email me for more details).
8. Hurricane recipe:
20% light rum
20% dark rum
50% juice (BE CREATIVE- combos are OK!)
10% grenadine
9. I just mopped the floor and vacuumed.
10. Meow!
