Sucessful Gardening and Parties
We managed to plant 7 rose bushes in my mother's rose bed at Deleware Park. It's kind of sad they she has this giant rose bed and no helpers. My mother started working on it with my dad, my aunt, and my uncle. Unfortunately, the other three quit so my mom is left alone to work on it. Luckily, she was able to rope her sons in. So Mike, Terry, Matthew, and I arrived a little late but stuff got done.

Then we went back to the 309 to move some furniture and eat clams. They were $1.44/dozen at Tops on elmwood. WHat a freakin' deal. I would really like to shop there because it is so much cheaper than Wegman's and the coop, but the later are both local business, although differing degrees of local.)

I also decided to start the site newspaper by letting users click on news icons in their journal to add the story to the site newsletter. After a couple months issues, I assume the computer can "learn" enough to write it by itself. We will have to see.

Well, we (southern yankee, lisa, holly, terry, mike, and I) are off to the party at the Rachel 23. Hope to see some of you there. Maybe we will go to the 1940s party at the coop house too, although, I think I will be too alergic.

If I don't see you tonight emily, get well soon. You looked so sad/sick yesterday.

City Hall Show and Marriage
We went to see the installations last night. It was great. Soyeon had built this crazy maze in an all black, darkened room in order to demonstrate the maze and hurtles that she goes through as a foreigner in the states. She compared it to her experience with parking tickets at City Hall.

Robin had two tubes with video in the broom closet. If you looked down the top tube you would see a video of her being really upset about her friend dying. In the bottom tube at about children's height you could see danicng, singing vaginas - a reference to a particular godess. Check out her journal to see more info [inlink]robin,11[/inlink].

Julie married people in performance 70's retro style udner the churchofjulie. Here is a pic with emilybob and us during our ceremony.

Lake Shore Diner
We left our neighborhood in order to escape the exploitive high prices of the Pano's night tim emenu. We decided to head out to the Access Community neighborhood. I was astounded at how many young, preppy, suburbanites were there. I am glad I live in this neighborhood. It was like being at school on Long Island or on MTV.

The food was pretty tasty and very pricewrothy. However, the corwd was too much for my personal dining pleasure. Every two minutes some drunk person came in to try and pee. You would never see that at Pano's.

Now, I really don't believe Lauren when he says our neighborhood is pretentious and yuppified. But i prefer that to glamour style prep students any day. Call me a sellout.
