On this visit he came to present at my office, I know he might be hard to spot, but that's him above in the cardigan and slicked back heavily gelled locks. I tried to put a cayute picture of us together, unfortunately Mags deleted all of those off my camera because he didn't think the lens properly captured his good looks.
yes. it is possible.
Lex at 6:33 pm "Lets listen to phish"
alli just found this beautiful photo (and tagged me in it on facebook) anyways, when i was 22, my orthodonist/next door neighbor came up w/ this nutty plan to fix the space in my teeth in only 5 days. i looked like a dorky awkward middle schooler, so i refused to leave the house. eventually my mom said i had to get out and come w/ her to brandsmart cuz she was looking for a new refridgerator. she told the sales dude that her fridge was 18 years old and he goes, "wow! thats older than your daughter!"
Basically, Lex and I will sit around an asian Rainforest Cafe waiting to see who our real friends are. To make it extra fun (and egomaniacal) you are all to come dressed as your favorite blog post. I know this sounds rather difficult, but the possibilities are really endless.
Not only is Benna teaching these kids invaluable life skills, like trust falls
and high fives
but she's also working on getting a library going and needs all the book donations she can. Shipping books can be quite pricey so she's come up with a great little plan to encourage all you givers out there to maybe host a little get-together, have your friends bring books, and throw in a couple bucks towards shipping (there are special book shipping rates, and if you're in the Big Apple her rents will even pick them up from your place and ship them out for you). Of course, don't let geographical limits hinder your efforts, and if you've got any questions email us. Also, you should really check out her blog, it's really neat.
We were then lucky enough to wine and dine at one of NYC's finest dining establishments--Red Lobster.*
We spent so much time showing the world how much we loved Times Square, and battling the ticket machines, that our movie was sold out.
We decided to leave the hummerzine behind and get a real big apple experience on the Subway. Thankfully we befriended some MTA employees who were super helpful and taught us how to use New York transit--I can't believe how cayute those subway cards are!
I don't know why people say that New Yorkers aren't friendly. I mean they just love to have fun--for goodness sake they even conga line in the stations!*
Kim was so overtaken with fun and emotion she forgot how to use her words.
Even my daughter Melissa made it (disguised as a paper cut-out of herself in a clown suit).
It was difficult for all of us to say bye to Ari, but Kim seemed to take it especially hard when she collapsed into some christmas trees to poop and cry.
We miss you already Ari.
Thankfully, I saw they were going to be performing in Camden, NJ--we LOVE Camden, NJ. Even just this last summer it could really bring out the Kid in us. Lex never has been able to resist the lure of Jersey, so she begrudingly caved. I also think some memories might have flooded back, like the time George Clinton crawled around on his hands and knees helping alexis find her cell phone.
And so we did something I think we both doubted would ever happen again. We entered the Phish ticket lottery.
Brah, I'll like totally be bummed if we like don't get tickets, man.

best last day of shorts and flip flops!
Today Alli and I took Coop and Mini Coop (leroy) to "dog beach". the boys were running around doing their thing so we sat down and watched. i was wearing only a bikini top with lots of skin exposed. then this giant chocolate lab came up behind me. it all happened in slow motion because i noticed the sound of running water before i felt the warm liquid cover my entire back. i stood up and screamed, "i got peed on!!!! what do i do!?!?!?" alli said through all her laughter to go wash it off in the ocean. i threw my phone at her, took of my shorts, and ran into the ocean screaming like a little girl. then i laughed. then i laughed some more. then the owner of the giant chocolate lab politely offered to let leroy pee all over his back...
BIG MISTAKE!!! we literally cried from the opening credits until about a half hour after the movie ended. ok ok it was a good movie but oh man. it was rough.
