he heals!
Category: silliness
Halloween is the coolest time of year. 5his is probably the first year that I didn't do anthing directly related to it. I didn't even have a pumpkin!
However, Halloween night Jesus gave me a full body massage. I sprung for a nice treat to polish off my weekend. It wasn't candy, but it was sweet. I felt both relaxed and rejuvinated afterwards. While I was lying there naked, I had to supress a fit of giggles. If I hadn't already checked out his belt line, It would have been more strange than what it was to hear the sound of unzipping while I lay there with my eyes closed.
But I had seen a little pack attached to his belt...
if I had started to laugh, I know I would not of been able to stop. There were too mnay humorous and lewd things rolling through my mind. Thanks jesus.

I think I can afford a monthy self-spoiling activity..

so my night of relaxation quickly dissappated upon arrival to work. bah.

a hot bubble bath and a glass of wine is in my future this evening..

teany
Category: adventure
Dana and I enjoyed a lovely breakfast at the Teany cafe. There are 98 teas to choose from. I was just where I needed to be with that many choices! I had a pot of Green Sea Anenome tea along with a toasted scone and a side of fresh jam and clotted cream; a sweet cream cheese. The atmosphere was fun, bright and cozy. We had a wonderful seat in the corner by the window; a great view of everything and everyone. It was a nice warm retreat from the very cold windy day. I had to strip down all of my layers as I was bundled under three shirts, a tank top, sweater and scarf, hat, etc.

Although Moby did not make an appearance, his ex girlfriend cashed me out. I had hoped that they spilt on friendly terms, but alas, he is no longer part owner of this super cute cafe. Ok, I don't really know the story between them, maybe they are pals.

I didn't leave with a Moby sighting but I did walk out with my own tin of Sea Anenome tea.

Teany was the only note worthy establishment on Rivington Street.

The clear pot has the anenome and the little tea plate has an extra dried anenome in case I wanted it stonger.

More tales of New York City to come...
theecarey - 11/01/06 22:30
A more thorough search of Rivington is in order. I (we) must have gotten side tracked onto another street. At one point, I thought, 'This can't be it! um, I am bored- time to go somewhere else".

I intend to visit again soon. Thanks for the heads up, (e:howdown) !
hodown - 11/01/06 10:57
Oh man there are soooo sooo many places on rivington- you just gotta look!!
lilho - 11/01/06 10:18

jenks - 10/31/06 20:43
Wow! that tea anemone is so cool!
libertad - 10/31/06 20:10
that looks awesome. maybe i should try the tea place on elmwood. Nice pics. Maybe you missed a career opportunity in food/beverage establishement photography.

Category: adventure

going places
Category: adventure
I like to pack extremely light.

If it can't fit into a back pack, I don't need to bring it.

Ofcourse, I havent even begun packing for my NYC trip this weekend. I supposed I should get to that soon, huh?

Rain Rain go away., I don't want to pack an unmbrella.

omg hahahha, my mom just got a computer. I am not sure if she has ever been on one. She's smart and resourceful, I am sure she'll figure it out. Still funny though..

Well off to pack, then heading into B-lo. Where's the trouble tonight?



mike - 10/28/06 12:19
I am the exact oppossite. I pack enough for a lifetime for like a one day trip. Serouisly if we go to Toronto for the day I have like a backpack, a few bags, a complete first aid case, and some extra shoes in the trunk just in case. I can't help it, what if there is an emergency.

reccommend a book
Category: simplicity
Its getting to be that time of year for suggling- preferably not alone ;)

brrr. I think I will bust out the hot cocoa soon. I hear Baileys has come out with a chocolate mint liquer. That might be a nice addition to the hot soothing liquid..

I am starting to read, Paulo Cohelo's, The Alchemist. Well, actually I began reading it before the summer began, then I found myself with no extra time or mental energy to read it as I was finishing up school. Now I have returned to it. I think it will be helpful to me on various levels.

I am looking to pick out a book to read after that, which should be very soon as it is simple book.

I want to read something that isn't scholarly-- unless it comes highly reccommended. I am looking for something that I can wrap my mind around, become completely emerged and lost in. Something that I don't want to put down. The weather is colder, the days shorter and it is time to nest a bit. Reading is a perfect compliment to that. Besides, I haven't really had the opportunity to just read for the fun of it in quite some time.


How about some suggestions fellow (e:peeps)??

btw, nice theme, (e:leetee) love the bats!
theecarey - 10/27/06 18:53
Thanks for the suggestions, peeps!

I am writing them down and will be sure to pick up a few of the titles on my next book splurge.

haha, although I think I may just have to start with, The Devil Wears Prada

btw, I love love love The Count of Monte Cristo. I have read it almost every year since the 11th grade. so that, um, means I have read it at least a few times ;)
lilho - 10/27/06 13:20
totally chick lit and aneasy read, but totally hilarious andentertaining, the devil wears prada. i read last winter, or the one before. anyway, it was the perfect entertainment.
museumchick - 10/26/06 14:56
Flannery O'Connor is really good for this time of year. I've really been enjoying Poppy Z. Brite's "Liquor" and "The Value of X" lately.
iriesara - 10/26/06 11:26
Count of Monte Cristo (Alexandre Dumas) is always good, and anything Dostoyevsky, for sure (I'm reading the Idiot right now, that's good), but not easy to read, true. For "lostability" factor, otherwise lately I've read the Grapes of Wrath (Steinbeck), the Good Earth (Pearl S Buck)....also the Painted House (John Grisham, but very different from his other stuff). My main recommendation would be the Count, though, even if you've read it sometime before. It's my absolute favorite. I've read it like 5 or 6 times, and get excited every time I start it. Good luck! :)
hodown - 10/26/06 09:38
House of Mirth by Edith Wharton- I love it or True at First light by Hemmingway. Both books you can sit and get lost in another world with.
carolinian - 10/26/06 00:26
Dan Brown's Angels and Demons. Sort of the prequel to the Da Vinci Code, but much, much better.
leetee - 10/25/06 23:14
Thanks, Carey! :)
mrmike - 10/25/06 22:24
I just finished JPOD by Douglas Coupland. It was fun escapist stuff.
