My gym offers a bunch of free group exercise classes, most of them at very inconvenient times. For example, most morning classes begin at 6:30 am. Right, because I’m getting up at 5 in the morning to do cardio “kickboxing”? No. I went through the schedule today, as I was bored at work, and circled […]

We still get so much mail for the guys who used to live in our apartment. About 99% of it is of course junk. Ugh. They didn’t put any kind of forward in place and naturally the post office doesn’t give a shit. So I am now accustomed to taking a few pieces of mail […]

It’s been a nice birthday. Brian organized a dinner with our friends Rena and Derek who just happen to be visiting this week (they live in Bklyn), and he set it up at this Turkish restaurant which I happen to LOVE, having eaten there only once. Brian didn’t even know I had been there, so […]
