The always adorable gilana came over for Shabbat lunch, which was a lot of fun ( Read more... )

Got in to Newark at 6am this morning on the red-eye from Seattle. Went straight to work in Manhattan.

See you next week! :(

My artist number for the Arisia Art Show is 123. I just think that's kinda funny.

Last night I went to a hookah bar in the East Village with a nice orthodox Jewish friend who shall remain nameless. I'd never been before, it was her idea. Lots of fun! Very soothing. In addition to hookahs and ale to set the mood, the place had a very middle-eastern feel. It was pretty darn cool, particularly for a Wednesday night.
