My friends got married moments ago. The bride and groom are mingling, but here is the lovely bride. She looks gorgeous!
Last night, after dinner, my friends and I hit up a karaoke bar. But this was like rock star karaoke with a stage, full band, and backup singers. The works.
If you’re wondering if I went up, then you don’t know me very well. I sang “don’t stop believing” with s friend…and there’s video to prove it.
Just ate a delicious pork chop and mashed potato dish at Emeril’s at Citywalk.
Deeeelicious!
Two hours, one business meeting, and one shower later, I’m all settled into my hotel room.
On the agenda tonight: dinner at Emeril’s and fun at Citywalk!
Earlier tonight, the management that runs my apt building decided to throw a “get to know everyone who lives here” mixer. And although there’s live music and alcohol, it’s so dark and loud to have a conversation with someone. So I’m just hung out with the two neighbors I already know.

OMG. following IMMEDIATELY.
so saturday night i did something out of the ordinary: i attended…a country concert. my friends wanted to go zac brown band, and being that i sorta like the 2 songs i’ve heard, i decided to go along with it. i actually had a really great time. the show was good, but i enjoyed myself more because of the company. overall, a fun time was had.
OK, iTunes, I’ve already given up: I’m old and will never feel comfortable in my knowledge of today’s music ever again.
HOWEVER… “Lady Antebellum”? Is this a parody? How can this person hold the top spot?
this is quickly becoming one of my favorite features on eric’s blog. sadly i know all of the songs but numbers 4 and 5. and yes, i’ve even heard the lady antebellum song. i shzamed it with my iphone the other day. yes, i actually just typed that. and yes, that means i was listening to a country song…and liked it. riding in cars with people who like country music is affecting me.
Fozzy is looking a little nervous. Not only did I give him a bath this morning, but now he’s at the vet to get a few shots. I am not his favorite person today.
How dare you, NYU...
I paid an incredulous amount for my undergrad degree at NYU and they sent me something in the mail asking for a $5,000 donation. Probably so they can usurp more real estate downtown and commercialize the little that’s left of the Village.
Wow and I thought University of Illinois was out of line when they sent me something asking me to pay $1,200 for a brick for the Alumni Center.
Hey, fellow NYU alum! Yeah, I know the feeling. They bombard you with dozens of “SEND MONEY TO US!” letters and all I can say is that I forked over a hideous amount for my education already. Leave me alone.
One of my college jobs was working for the NYU Phoneathon. Nothing is more miserable than calling a bunch of alums and asking them to give money.
Incredulous, hideous, ridiculous, vomit-inducing… I hate the fact that I went to NYU. So fucking expensive, a fact that never occurred to me until after I graduated. :(
i agree with meghan and everyone else about how it’s terrible that colleges hound you for money within 5 years of graduating. how many 27 year olds (and under) do you know that can afford to give a $1,000 (or more) to their university? ESPECIALLY if you live in new york city. what happens if you’re still a med student drowning in student loans? even the financial industry is suffering from the current economy. i will say, that although people complain about nyu a lot, and i have some frustrating stories, i very much enjoyed my college experience. as an admissions ambassador (yes, i used to give college tours) i definitely tried to “sell” nyu to prospective students and their families, but i was always HONEST. and i ALWAYS said that as much as i loved the school and the city and my experiences there, that the school definitely wasn’t for everyone. especially if you wanted the rolling hills or the greek life or the football games. basically, all i’m saying is that although i hate the amount of student loans i had to take out to attend nyu, i’m still very much happy about going to college there and i wouldn’t trade it in for anything in the world.
