look at that\u2026suburban lethargy overwhelmed me again, draining all desire to post. but i saw this coming, and jotted down notes anyhoo. rewinding what i think is 2 weeks\u2026thursday drinkies at brass monkey<\/i> with g+r, steph, kyoko, and dano. itd been a while since we\u2019d been to brass monkey<\/i>, probably since we had moved offices at my old job from the meat packing district to the west village. damn that place got big, and not in a figurative sense\u2026they added a second floor and what looked like a roof deck. cripes. i crashed at g+r\u2019s too because we were out late, and i wanted to \u201cpractice\u201d the commute from my soon-to-be new home to work. shit, its faster than getting their from alphabet city! thats just wrong\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
