Best 2 out of 3
In case you don't want to click over there or are too lazy to do so (hey I wouldn't blame you, it takes a lot out of me to even blog in the first place) below are the pictures and the back story:
Every Sunday there are free shows at McCarren Pool with sometimes good bands and always interesting people watching. So post McCarren pool we decided to head over to this bar with cheap beer and good nachos. We had snagged a sweet booth. Well sweet for everyone but Carolyn who got stuck sitting in a chair at the end of the table. She wanted to relocate to an outdoor table, but I felt that:
1. The outdoor table was smelly- it was near the garbage
2. The outdoor table was too hot. Not all of us lived in Brazil and love 90 degrees and 75% humidity.
Thus we decided to settle our dispute the way any respectable 20-30 something women do: arm wrestle.
I found this idea so fun and funny that the first bout Carolyn throughly creamed me. However I was prepared and had my game face on when I suggested best 2 out of 3. I won easily, but somehow we still ended up outside near the smelly garbage.
This is my game face. As you can see its quite intense.
Sweet, sweet victory.

Book Clubs
Anyways this time I really read it. Cover to cover. Twice I missed my train stop because I was so engrossed in it. Man was it disturbing and interesting. I've had dreams about it. And now that I'm done reading it I can't stop thinking about it, and how fucked up the end is. I feel like the only way to get it out of my system is to talk about it with other people who've read it. Thus the whole book Club might actually be a good idea realization..

Most Affordable Towns
Kenmore, New York
Median family income: $59,875
Median home price (2006): $93,413
Kenmore joins the aforementioned Tonawanda to form a region the locals call Ken-Ton. The Buffalo suburb offers low-cost housing in low-crime neighborhoods. Decent single-family homes start around $70,000 there with many in the $150,000 range. More exclusive areas, like Deerfield Park, will cost you close to $300,000.

Vacation
Really the whole point of that long paragraph is I now have to wait until August 21st to fly first class. Really that's the highlight of my vacation. I'm really looking forward to it. More than I think is normal. I always walk by the first class folks when boarding and look longingly at their large leather seats. Then I cry on the inside a little again after the stewardess makes the announcement that the bathroom in the front of the aircraft is for first class passengers only. I have to pee like 2 times an hour and bathrooms are essential to me. I can't wait to have access the the exclusive bathroom.
Oh and also I'm looking forward to the free booze that apparently they serve in first class. I mean come on we all know momma likes to get her drink on while flying.

Astronaut did NOT wear diapers
Lesson learned: Don't wear adult diapers to confront a romantic rival if you don't want it all over the news (and then featured in an episode of Law & Order).

Yesterday
At 5:30pm promptly I leave my office and walk out into the swealtering NYC heat with like a million other people because there's also been ANOTHER power outtage thanks to f'ing ConEd (who also likes to raise rates and provide shitty service) and the trains are all jacked up along with the buses, so everyone is walking. So there I am walking down 6th Avenue, cursing everyone and right in front of me like a breath of fresh air appears Mr. Anderson Cooper. And out loud I said "Anderson Cooper, check". Apparently he's now been crossed off my "celebs to see" list. And Just like that my day was better.
Lesson of the story: seeing a celeb on the street makes everything better.
