  • This Is How We Tie It Up…

    On August 16th I found a bear friend, and we chilled.

    I was trying to right a Music Video pitch.

    But it’s hard work, and sometimes you feel like doing this.
    NextBlog - 03

    Well, every body does.
    NextBlog - 04

    Even couples.

    The next day, Kerri finally got her birthday present from Jenna, her very on piece of original art.

    The artist and birthday girl were both very excited.

    Thursday would be another disappointing day at Linzie’s.
    NextBlog - 09

    I kept playing well and getting hugely unlucky.
    NextBlog - 10

    But the night can’t go wrong when you end it up in some random frat bar.
    NextBlog - 11

    Except it didn’t end, we went back to John’s for a late night sesh. Where once again I fell to Fortuna’s cursed wheel.

    But the sunrise was nice.

    The next day, disliking my unruly hirsute scruffiness, I treated myself to a wonderful trip to SuperCuts.
    NextBlog - 14

    It was the best Super Cuts has ever treated me.
    NextBlog - 15

    And right on time too, for my snazzy dinner at Craft.
    NextBlog - 16

    Where Jenna and I enjoyed the best that Colechio had to offer. And god Damn! it was good. The man knows how to cook corn like nobody’s business! Here and at Craft Steak.

    I even told him so in the suggestions letter.

  • When The Glass Blows…

    About one month ago, Jenna took her first trip on Metro North.
    ChihuliBlog - 01

    It was a sexy experience.
    ChihuliBlog - 02

    Because we were headed to the awesome Chihuly show at the Bronx Botanical Garden.
    ChihuliBlog - 03

    Who’s Chihuly, you might ask? He is this one eyed artist that designs amazing glass sculptures like this one.
    ChihuliBlog - 04

    Check out that cool action.
    ChihuliBlog - 05

    They were huge and wonderful in the foliage space.
    ChihuliBlog - 06

    Some were small and hidden.
    ChihuliBlog - 07

    And it felt like an art easter egg hunt.
    ChihuliBlog - 08

    The huge balloons just hung there like luscious grapes.
    ChihuliBlog - 09

    Jenna posed with the glass snakes.
    ChihuliBlog - 10

    This guy just really has a crazy aesthetic. Such wondrous shapes.
    ChihuliBlog - 11

    Like this humoungous ceiling fixure.
    ChihuliBlog - 12

    Ooohh, spotted another hidden one in the desert.
    ChihuliBlog - 13

    Outdoors, the whole pool was lined with these.
    ChihuliBlog - 14

    And the pond itself had some treasures.
    ChihuliBlog - 15

    The fish for one.
    ChihuliBlog - 16

    But the boat was just full of surprises.
    ChihuliBlog - 17

    We loved it.
    ChihuliBlog - 18

    This majestic number lights up at night, wish I could see that.
    ChihuliBlog - 19

    More scavenger hunts. Can you spot the Chihuly?
    ChihuliBlog - 20

    In the shadows.
    ChihuliBlog - 21

    Hanging in the trees.
    ChihuliBlog - 22

    Just pinking it out.
    ChihuliBlog - 23

    Our chilling in the fountain.
    ChihuliBlog - 24

    Or just sharing a Jenna moment.
    ChihuliBlog - 25

    The next outdoor pool also was surrounded.
    ChihuliBlog - 26

    But these little glass cacti really did it for me.
    ChihuliBlog - 27

    More stuffed boats.
    ChihuliBlog - 28

    More flamingo shapes.
    ChihuliBlog - 29

    And another piece de resistance, this large ass globe of snakes.
    ChihuliBlog - 30

    Look at that texture.
    ChihuliBlog - 31

    Then next installation we found near the rose garde.
    ChihuliBlog - 32

    Look at these wonderful flowers.
    ChihuliBlog - 33

    Don’t they just feel,
    ChihuliBlog - 34

    So O’keefe vaginal?
    ChihuliBlog - 35

    We thought so.
    ChihuliBlog - 36

    What great color.
    ChihuliBlog - 38 ChihuliBlog - 37

    And what cool blue.
    ChihuliBlog - 39

    Just purely unique.
    ChihuliBlog - 40

    Awwww. What a cute couple.
    ChihuliBlog - 41

    That last pieces were these great big bowls.
    ChihuliBlog - 42

    The had the craziest colores.
    ChihuliBlog - 48 ChihuliBlog - 47   

    Just a magical room.
    ChihuliBlog - 45

    With deep deep shade combinations.
    ChihuliBlog - 46 ChihuliBlog - 44
    ChihuliBlog - 43 ChihuliBlog - 49

    Lovely.
    ChihuliBlog - 50

    On the way out we crossed the Bronx river, which i didn't even know existed.
    ChihuliBlog - 51

    But wait, there was just one more Chihuly to see, hidden in the swamp.
    ChihuliBlog - 52

    Floating rock-like structures.
    ChihuliBlog - 53

    Shining in the scum.
    ChihuliBlog - 54

    Making everyone smile.
    ChihuliBlog - 55

    And what would a trip to a Botanical garden be without shrub sculpting?
    ChihuliBlog - 56

    Not much I say.
    ChihuliBlog - 57

    Thank you metro north.
    ChihuliBlog - 58

    Thank you Chihuly. Thank you America.
    ChihuliBlog - 59

    And thank you Klong, for ending the day with an incredibly fresh fruit salad.
