A rare moment for them to be in the kitchen together. An even rarer moment for my dad to be at the stove.

My first visit here. The inside is hidden for construction, but the surrounding grounds are quite lovely.

Taken exactly an hour and thirty minute before I heard from Juilliard.

... and our last free meal for a while. poohoo.

This guy was standing a bit close to the edge, but I didn't think it was my place to tell him (or her) to step behind the yellow line. The last time I took a picture of this platform, a pigeon was patrolling this same spot.

This was my first time in the Parker Meridian. Don't know what the rooms are like but the lobby is pretty cool... especially if you like mirrors. Aside from the narcissist friendly walkway, the hotel is also home to The Burger Joint, which is probably the most carefully dressed hole-in-the-wall joint I've been to. It's truely the definition of ghetto-chic.

... i really do. Maybe it's because I haven't been invited to that many, hence they are still quite a novelty to me. But Jenny's wedding was just full of happiness, love, laughter, great food, friends.. all the the good stuff in life. I'm glad I went and I'm glad I was included in Jenny's special day. I came away with a jar of Austrian honey and a lot of joy that will stay with me for a long long time.

The Performing Arts Library is one of my favorite places to go in Manhattan. It houses a wealth of information that's valuable to all visitors, whether you're involved in the performing arts or not. The space is comfortable, open, full of sunlight and has many reading tables overlooking the Lincoln Center pool. Right now, there's a photo exhibit called "Actors in Character" adorning the library's walls. It features the faces and expressions of almost everybody who is anybody in the New York acting world. Go! Check it out!

Sad but true to life... this really is how we spent Wednesday night. TV on, logged onto AIM, cat purring...

I've lived in Brooklyn for over a year now, but I still manage to get lost. After an 11-hour day on the set of "The Tourist," I somehow squeeze in a detour on the B, Q line.

Now there are only 4 single girls in this picture. The gorgeous blonde in the middle will be married in a month. Sad sad...
