The High Line


Friends! Visit NYC so we can stroll through the High Line!! We'll get ice cream, take many camera-phone photos together, and end up in Hell's Kitchen, where we can dine on brick oven pizza served on mini two-tier racks or get tapas y vino(!)



Artsy.


The old and the new. All these new glass buildings = mosaic patterns.


I love brick.


You can see the Statue of Liberty from here.



Gah, Photoshop color corrections not showing up. :(

Evernote


If you're like me and you need some sort of electronic/life (now officially one entity) organization, get Evernote NOW. I was searching for Apps that I could add to my iPhone for organizing August's Eurotrip, and there Evernote was—green and FREE. The syncing is flawless and super fast. Now if Apple's MobileMe and Evernote teamed up together, would that be...heaven? I finally feel like I'm putting my MacBook Pro to use... Sad.

By the way, I currently don't use MobileMe. Apple has a 60-day trial and it's $99/year after the trial. Worth it? My life isn't chaotic and important enough for it (yet).



Slide the volume all the way up.

Rewards, rewards


After building 200 square feet of mirror tiles (and another 21 of the same pattern), I get this project:



O M G.

240 square feet of M I N I Basketweave.

Each square is 3/8" x 3/8" and each stick is 1/2" x 1.5". You've got to be fucking kidding me. What kind of person orders this?!! Seriously. Whatevs, I'm going to mosaic the shit out of this bathroom.
