no time to blog

again, sorry for the lack of posts. this summer has proved to be non-stop action. whether it be crazy busy at work in the new space (did i mention LOVING the new space and it's new inhabitants... LOVING THEM ALL!) or entertaining old friends or going out with new friends, it's been quite the summer of fun!

last weekend wanna, my dear wanna, who i haven't seen in a year came to town. we had a total whirlwind weekend. can't comment on it all, but here's the rundown.
-thursday: wanna's arrival 1:30am, go to moe's for beers.
-friday: go to workspace and hang. meet griffin at MOMA. checked out cezanne and pissaro exhibition (awesome!) and friedlander photos (great!). back to my house. dinner at my fave south african restaurant in the hood. then to bembe in williamburg for latin dance party. then to zebullon for mellow out session.
-saturday: local fort greene flea market (bought cool earrings). brunch at mexican spot. tooling around the hood (griffin and wanna both fell in love with fort greene... how can you not?). walked thru the park. wanna and i met with marieange about sri lanka project. i did errands while they continued the meeting. then off to williamsburg. met at workspace for beers and ping pong on the roof. then bar hopping all over the hood. ended up at black betty late night style. my friend got projectile puked on (lovely!).
-sunday: wanna and i did some cheapy clothes shopping. then bought picnic fixin's. fixed up some picnic yumminess. met with friends in FG park for the first soul music summit of the summer. had the best time ever eating, drinking, chilling, people watching, picture taking and of course, dancing. back to my place for the after party. then back into the city for jazz at small's. so TIRED!
monday: wanna leaves early. i go to work all day (late!). met with frenchie to have "the talk." we resolve to be friends.
-tuesday: work work work. then beach time at jones beach on long island with karina and shonda (who knew NY had such lovely beaches? impressed). then off to the erykah badu, jill scott, queen latifah, floetry concert at the ampitheater (wicked!).

now back at work. needless to say i'm exhausted and ready to chill out again. new plan is to be productive, get back in shape, save money and mellow out a bit. at least for this week!
