Pictures and such

So I'm kind of disappointed right now because I had these beautiful plans of taking a big blanket to Central Park after work and laying around and reading all evening with my friends. But I am disappointed in that it was an absolutely gorgeous day all day until about fifteen minutes ago. It was so beautiful and not too hot but not too cold when I walked home from work. But no. The sky is suddenly grey and I am hearing thunder. In a matter of minutes my plans have been ruined.

But that's ok, because that means an update for you. =)

I have tons of pictures to post. So here's a little recap (with pictures) of what I've been up to lately...


Tuesday night was a very fun night. In the evenings during the summer the Lincoln Center hosts outdoor dancing with various clever names. The one on tuesday was called A Midsummer's Night Swing. There were swing dancing lessons and swing dancing all around. My friend Kelly was particularly into it, which was fun for everyone to watch because she is generally pretty quiet. Everyone was dancing on the sidewalks and in the plaza. Just everywhere there were people swing dancing. Young and old, good and bad. It was a wonderful night.

This is all of the girls when we arrived.

Here is Kelly dancing with her gentleman friend.

Experimenting with a color filter on my camera.

Everybody dancing!

My friends Elysa and Stephanie dancing and being goofy.

Last night the gang wondered down to the new intern's dorm a few blocks away. He lives in the international house, and sadly I did not take pictures of the beautiful buildings lining the streets near by... you'll just have to take my word for that.



Today I did a little bit more exploring to make up for my recent lack there of. My friend and I stumbled into the entomology wing where we found lots of amazing arachnids just lounging about in plexi glass cubes lining the hallway. They were just out there for everyone to see.

Here's a cool picture of the Apex preditor I took on my way into the museum this morning. Notice how nobody is in there??? That's because it's empty. Because I am allowed in the museum when nobody else is. Because I work there. Because it's the best job ever. Hehe.


Ok... that's it for now.
