Tonight was really interesting. [Or should I say last night? My timeline for this weekend may never be reconstructed. I remember it all just not in the order it happened. Thank goodness for time stamp]

It's funny how much you learn about yourself when you're forced to be around people who are completely different from you. But there's nothing like great friends to remind you that no matter how bad things get they still accept you for who you are.... No matter many Emotional Ketchup Bursts and Alcohol-induced Epiphanies you have in one single night.

This week has been full of poor judgment calls. Friday was a very long day ending on a good note. Saturday on the other hand, began with a lot of confusion. Existential Meltdown here I come!

It's no secret that I have a slightly unhealthy obsession with the musical "In The Heights". Last night I went to hear Junot Diaz (Dominican Pullitzer prize winner) and Lin-Manuel Miranda (Creator of 'In the Heights') and it rocked!

Thanks to Jenn ,who invited me last minute, I got to meet both creative souls and even got their autographs. Now, I'm not the groupie type, but last night was an exception. I greatly admire these two guys, and against my usual "No, I don't do pictures...I just take them", I lent Julia to Francis and let him take these two.

Ingredients in Calorie free dressing. I can deal with fat-free and sugar-free, but calorie it's just too scary. How can something creamy be calorie free?

The Kingsbridge Armory. There has been a lot of talk about new things happening at the Armory. I would hate to see small businesses be hurt by a huge developments, but I'm all for using the space. It's a massive structure and it can easily become an eyesore if not maintained.
