<br />
Thankfully, it&#039;s Friday and there is one cooling in the fridge at home waiting my arrival...MmMmM. Beer.<br />

What causes are important to YOU in Buffalo?<br />
<br />
I&#039;m starting my thesis crap and I thought <a href="/">(e:strip)</a> would be a great place to get some input..<br />
<br />
Thanks!<br />

There is something called the &quot;Green Gold Initiative&quot; that is trying to create jobs and make Buffalo more environmentally conscious. You can read about their strategy here: <a class="blank" href="http://www.ci.buffalo.ny.us/Home/City_Departments/Special_Programs_and_Agencies/Green_Gold_Initiative/TheGreenGoldStrategy">Green Gold Strategy</a>. I have no idea how long this has been going on, but I really hope it starts coming to life.<br />
<br />
I think I&#039;m going to try and contact the people to see if I can do a game to promote/support the project for my thesis project. I can&#039;t tell if they would be excited about it or think it is a waste of time. I think  game would be a great way to get high school and college students involved and excited about this initiative.<br />
<br />
I guess I&#039;ll find out...<br />

I recently came across this scene and it still makes me laugh. The sad thing is that because of the sometimes slow pace of the movie, I know people who never made it this far. Thank goodness for you Tube!<br />
<br />
My hardwood floors are awesome! It&#039;s so amazing how different they look. I can&#039;t wait to have a party and invite people over....of course everyone will now have to take their shoes off.<br />

I know it&#039;s expensive, but I saw bands I already knew and loved (Louis XIV, Raconteurs, Mates of State...) and was exposed to a lot more that I really liked (Ting Tings, Kid Sister, Devotchka, The Whigs, MGMT, Foals...)!!! Start saving now! $100 bucks a month will give you enough for a ticket, room (sharing w/ @ least one person), flight, and food! It was totally worth it.<br />
<br />
The food wasn&#039;t too pricey and there was tons of free stuff and tents to check out between shows I wanted to see. It was HOT but it didn&#039;t rain and that&#039;s ok with me - beer and water will cool anyone down. Most of the stages had areas where you could hang out in the shade and still see the music. <br />

This is Devotchka - not that you can even see them...<br />
<br />
I&#039;m still semi-homeless until my floors are done. They said the last coat should be dry some time tomorrow...I would love to sleep in my own bed! But my house is going to be disorganized for at least another week until we&#039;re allowed to put the furniture back in. I took before pictures, and I can&#039;t wait to compare them with the after photos.<br />

So sad. Today will be fun because I have 5 or 6 teams signed up. Wednesday is still a little iffy. <strong class="tb_b">So</strong> - if any of you could pull together a team for Wednesday from 5:45 - 8:45 I would like you a lot! I was going to say love you a lot, but in the end I decided that was a little extreme.<br />
<br />
We meet @ the College Street Gallery and then start exploring the city (see link in an earlier entry for more info).<br />
<br />
I&#039;ll try to remember to upload some pics from the game later tonight! Enjoy your weekend....<br />

The week leading up to it is crazy and I can&#039;t wait for some fun. Meet the City, getting floors refinished, work, and getting stuff together for the trip...it&#039;s almost over. Then I&#039;ll be in Chicago - obligation free - for 3 days. Yeah!<br />
<br />
Time to walk the dog...<br />

This will be my first year participating and I hope it goes well. I&#039;m doing a street game in the Allentown area. It&#039;s similar to a scavenger hunt except people take pictures with their phones at a specific spot in a specific theme and then send it to me. <br />
<br />
I&#039;ve done two practice runs so far that were great, but I hope there&#039;s enough people to play and that everything goes relatively smoothly! There&#039;s bound to be a few oops, but it will probably be pretty close to perfect on the last game of the festival. The first one is tomorrow at 4pm and starts at the College Street Gallery - if your interested you can see more info here: [link=meetthecity.calhoonplay.com]meetthecity.calhoonplay.com[/link] or <a class="blank" href="http://infringebuffalo.org/IF08/A054">http://infringebuffalo.org/IF08/A054</a><br />
And then there&#039;s to more - one Sunday and the other Wednesday evening...<br />
<br />
I&#039;ll post pictures when all the madness is over.<br />
<br />
Wish me luck!<br />
