Evan and Veronica's Wedding

I went to Evan and Veronica's wedding today. It was out at a park in New Jersey, and was a lot of fun. I would have loved to have stayed for more of the merriment, but I had to catch a plane to Dallas...

Bachelor Party in Las Vegas

Just got back from Las Vegas. That is an expensive city. I've got some pictures up over here. Maybe. I think I'll be eating lots of curry rice - at least until my next paycheck...

Max Soho and Showman's

Met up with Y.I. for a video (As Good As It Gets) and dinner. We ate at Max SoHa which is usually pretty good. Then we headed down to Showman's for some drinks and jazz. Pretty fun evening, all told.

Fort Tryon Picnic

Met some friends at Fort Tryon park near the Cloisters for a picnic. I brought the proverbial bucket of KFC chicken. While walking through the park, I noticed a cute little cafe that I've put on my list of places to try called The New Leaf Cafe. I haven't had good luck with picnics - it was really hot and humid, and at the previous picnic I was on (4th of July 2002) in Central Park it was also amazingly, meltingly hot.

The Mercer Kitchen

Brunch downtown at SoHo with Y.I. at a place I've been meaning to try, The Mercer Kitchen. Brunch has been one of my favorite meals lately, and I've been frequenting Kitchenette Uptown, so it was nice to compare. I had a great pancakes with banannas and mixed berries dish. Really fresh, tasty fruit. Afterwards, we checked out the new Apple store (pretty cool!) and did some shopping in the area. I picked up a new candle from Portico and some clothes on sale from Bananna Republic...

Some Freak Magazine

7/24/2002 Evening - Went downtown to meet Benkei and friends. Had dinner at Cafeteria. Looking over the menu, I just had to get the Fried Chicken and Waffles. I love breakfast. I'm a big fan of fried chicken. Why not put them together? Before eating, I took a picture of a cute blue-haired girl. I asked before hand, just because you know, it would be strange otherwise. Not like it wasn't strange enough as it was. Anyway, when I took the picture she said that she had made a face, but I said that was fine, since I didn't want to make her feel like I was hitting on her or anything. As I left, her friend said "Oh great, now you're gonna be in some freak magazine."
