bird tattoo



ok i haven't posted in a hundred years this week has been craziness... i don't know where to start! also, all the pictures suck because my digital camera is broken so i took them with my blackberry. cheers.

i was temping at the worlds worst office this week... i might have mentioned that. i hated it. i don't ever want to return even though the temp agency seems to think i'd be a great fit there as a permanent receptionist. are they trying to get rid of me or something?

ummmm i helped kyle with a shoot on thursday and it went really really well! i should have written about it that night... we used clothes from apc, lucien pellat-finet, yohji, tom ford, prada, chanel... and others. we had a lot of great menswear, i wasn't that obsessed with any of the women's wear but we had some good peices... and we mixed the designer items with stuff the models were already wearing. Oh, and the models were like, people we went to school with or friends of kyle's friends that have recently moved tot he city. it was really fun and i think we worked well together and the photographer was great... a picture of the polaroids from the shoot is above...

friday i had to return a lot of the clothes that we had used to the designer's showroom... definitely a lot of leg work in the freezing rain. luckily, brando helped me out and we got it done in pretty good time. afterwards we went to momofuku but it was sort of dissapointing. i've been talking it up so much because it was so good when vick and i went the last time... well, the pork buns were still incredible, but the sweetbreads were sort of gross this time and the noodle bowl with pork neck was cold and the pork neck waaaaaay overcooked. next time i'll just go and eat like 50 pork buns. and several orions. yum.

friday night was dinner with the girls at lure, after i threw a completely unneccesary temper tantrum. god knows what my problem was, i was just like, having an anxiety attack and something set me off and i went ballistic. thank god my friends are so patient and nice and that i realized i was being retarded and went to dinner (i threatened to stay home and order take out) because lure was amazing. great martinis, really fun atmosphere, and delicious food. we all had the raw bar platters for appetizer which was 4 oysters, two each of two varieties, and two huge shrimp with various dips and fixings. for entree vicky and kari got the sushi dishes that looked really really nice... really fresh lovely fishes! I got the tuna, mercury and all, and it was wonderful. really really quality tuna cooked perfectly. for dessert i had a lemon tart with vanilla icecream and caramel sauce... delicious. the girls had chocolate cakes that were also really good. definitely a fantastic restaurant week experience. sorry again, girls for being a crazy bitch momentarily!!!

saturday was a really fun day actually. i went to brunch with brandon, we grocery shopped for ingredients to make bruschetta for brooksie's cocktail party, then got tattooed! i've been talking about getting bird tattoos for a long time now... well i finally got one! on my right arm! and i want one on my left now!!! i really really love it. the girl who did it, virginia, was really really nice and did exactly what i wanted... and it hurt but i was so excited that it wasn't a big deal... i think brandon is tired of hearing about how much i like it. he got a fork and knife tattooed on his neck... ouch. it looks really good though! for a fork and knife on someone's neck! (haha)

after we left the tattoo place (New York Adorned), we rushed home and got ready for Brooksie's cocktail party at Alisa's apartment on the upper east side. I couldn't figure out what to wear to a cocktail party in the cold... but i finally managed and brandon packed up the bruschetta ingredients, and we made it up there... At first we felt really really out of place... I didn't really know anyone very well and brandon didn't know anyone... but by the end we made friends and drank a lot of wine and had a really good time. and the bruschetta was a huge hit... way to achieve, brandon.

today is gonna be a lazy day i think. stella is being really bad so i feel like maybe i should spend some time with her or soemthing. she really is being a little bitch. i work tonight, but since it's the super bowl, i think we're gonna be totally dead and I'll probably get sent home.

ANYWAYYYYY i think that about covers it. pictures will go up soon, i can't figure out how to make them not horrible quality... from my blackberry. god why is my camera broken!?!?
