people and things i encounter
while going about my business in new york city
BABY ALIEN MONSTER’S SPACEPOD LEFT WITHOUT HIM AND NOW HE’S SCARED ON THE STREETS OF BUSHWICK. I told him how to get his bearings by looking for the Empire State Building (that way is WEST!). But NYC must be so overwhelming when spacepods are all you know. #monsters #monsdar #Bushwick #Brooklyn #facesininanimateobjects #faces #imagination
LOL #Bushwick! Do you think there’s any correlation between this MacGuyver’ed garden and the fact that yesterday was “large trash day” pickup? I am proud to live among such resourceful neighbors. #reuse #recycle #repurpose #garden #brooklyn #DIY #MacGuyver #dumpsterdiving
Pro Brooklyn skill: Climb wobbly 100-year-old ladder to rooftop while carrying at least two beverages and probably a hoodie for someone. Emerge from roof-portal without spilling a drop! #ridgewood #bushwick #TarBeach #TopYard
Thank goodness that Jules is a Knight in Shining Armor, because SOME PEOPLE are just standing around drinking strawberry margaritas.

It’s so intrusive, how paparazzi will hound ‘celebs’ who are just trying to ‘step out’ to Starbucks or Pilates class or, umm, refill their strawberry margarita or whatever, but Heidi’s always been really gracious about it. Don’t hate the player, hate the game and Us Weekly.

The very very good life: Garden lurk! And our booze is healthy! Because it’s 60% fresh mango, watermelon, lime, and/or strawberries. Yup that’s how it works.

Because it’s her birthday, and she can do what she wants!

The little Puerto Rican girls next door were VERY interested in how our BBQ was going. They were hamming and doing dances for us, but when we acknowledged them and waved, they would squeal and run away… to reappear 10 seconds later, of course! #Ridgewood #Bushwick #BBQ #cincodemayo #kids #neighbors #citylife #NYC

¡Salúd! to living #OvariesOut, to 24/7 ethnology ‘field work’, to backyard wildflowers, to dear friends, To fruits! To no absolutes!, and to Birthday Girl PhD’s just-published book about “professional girlfriends” in Cambodia.

Those shoes! Those red fucking shoes!!
Oh, & what is about to emerge from the portal? #birthday #diva #ridgewoodny #bushwick #fabulous #cincodemayo
I can’t imagine why THE PRINT SHOP’s business never took off. #ridgewood #bushwick #NYC #typography #typographycrimes #DIY #fonts
Upon scoring an old garage space in #Ridgewood, one is compelled to bask in its convenient, decrepit glory. This is best done while wearing all animal prints at 5am. Our nosy neighbors need some new stoop topics! #NYC #Queens #Brooklyn #Bushwick #Ridgewick #parkingwars
“NECESITO DISH WASHER”
Wait, is that racist?
