Manhattan Scavenger Hunt

Yesterday, we had a scavenger hunt across Manhattan. The prize was a ton of Pocky, so we called our group Pockystan. There were like 140 things on the list, so we licked street signs and got Starbucks baristas to sign coffee cups and proposed to strangers and pole-danced on street poles and rapped with strangers and got an egg from an old lady in a townhouse and yelled through central park until we found a guy named Steve and played limbo with kids and futterwacked at the Alice in Wonderland statue and argued with crazy Jesus people and raped a church and burned a woman and sang Disney songs in a drugstore and high fived cops and Mr. Softee truck guys and a guy with an awesome mustache and staged public breakups and rode the carousel and walked piggyback into a parking garage making cars noises asking for the cost to park for a day and serenaded with Shakespeare and sang the prince of bel air theme with a guy on the street and beatboxed with strangers and got free macarons and impersonated elvis in grand central station and screamed "STELLAAAA!" in a subway car and hugged another crazy Jesus person who smelled like manure. Then we did kareoke.

In other words, yesterday was awesome.

Happy happy happy happy

It's snowing! Huzzah! Woo hoo!

Sure, it's been too warm for it to stick in any measurable amount, but...it's still snow! Yay!

I think my favorite part about snow in NYC is how the combination of a blanketing white surface and total cloud cover causes all of the street lights to reflect off the ground onto the clouds. It's awesome.

And I had hot cocoa this morning!

In other news, I'm going skiing next week, so that's also awesome! Smuggs has been getting lots of snow, so it'll be awesome.
