Either way, new photo post here.
I finally did the tshirt that has been in my head for ages. I'm so excited! now I just need to have enough money to order more blank tshrits and I can be my own little tshirt factory. Yay!
This was new at my subway stop (Q train at 7th Ave) this morning and it made me happy since I'm orginially from Baltimore. Like someone how it is all linked or something.
482 Broome Street
Notice the sticker graffiti stating "Enjoy Subprime Lending," I found that at another location in Chinatown/Soho. Very clever and timely I think.
On another note, this weekend i screened lots of shirts and it was better then expected but not perfect. i can't wait to buy more shirts so i can make it even more. Yay to getting stuff done you have thought about doing for years.
There is an old school on Classon Avenue only a block from my house. Half of it is still running, but the other half looks like it has been rusted shut for years. I tried to find a way in, but I'm not so good at breaking in to buidlings apparently.
Has anyone been to West 8th street lately?? In one block there was 6 empty stores. How insane is that? Though on the upside there is a new Lomo/Holga store. I was freakin out over it. I am so into my Holga now. But the girls that work there were so snotty and unhelpful. Sad.

This couple was walking in front of me on my way to the subway. Why
would a couple have matching bright yellow and blue sneakers? Dance
team? Cheerleaders? Mimes?
375B Canal Street
I get herbs in chinatown and my herbalist said buisness is so slow. He owes two months rent and asked the landlord for another extension. Strangely, all the tourist were missing. It really felt empty. For Chinatown, that is insane.
Thank you!
This weekend my lil brother came to town and we had big fun all around town. It is wondeful to be a tourist in your own town sometimes. We went to Brooklyn Brewery which was so fun (6 beers for 20 bucks!), then went to the only sports bar in Williamsburg to watch the Maryland game. I have never laughed so hard as when my lil brother went running up and down Grand Street when our team won.
In other news the website is really happening thanks to a good friend and I couldn't be more excited. Coming soon, Aperature Agog!!
Before you get sad about another empty place. Imagine what is going to be there soon. Imagine the possibilities of a whole new New York. Maybe the old curcuit city could turn into a theatre space. Or a huge petting zoo. Or an indoor jungle gym. What would you make it?
We went to get our taxes done Monday, and were so excited about the money we're getting back, splurged and went to Popeyes. Soooo good.
I was shocked to see a women outside the Grand Central subway station selling what looked to be everything. Her cloths, purses, a drill, a small tv etc. This was right out the side the entrance on 42nd and Lex at the Strawberry Store. A lot of people were stopping to pick over her wares and doing a lot of bartering. She didn't look to upset though, maybe it wasn't hers?
I had a weekend full of fun, a little icky tummyness, and some lucky photo taking. This was at Union Square around 1am on Friday night. Haven't we all had a night like this. I was lucky that Jacob was on the subway with me, my feet were killing me and was ready to sit on the ground myself.
