a magic trick...

...for Audrey.

And hey everybody! This is our 100th post! Woo Hoo!!

cheap, cheap, cheap, and d-e-l-i-c-i-o-u-s!

life with cats

Pushkin was Beka's pirate kittie... until he started kicking and flicking...





Eva looks good with some hair.

sunday afternoon football...

Doug was coaching.
Occasionally resorting to scare/bite tactics

This team is definately a force to be reckoned with...
Even if she does lose the ball (aka penguin)

playground

gator bait

Min, Nicole, Becky, Pep, and Audrey were all in town this weekend....

We found a resturaunt/bar that airs the gator games and for a $20 cover has free pitchers, a free drink for wearing gator gear, waffle fries, wings, and shots for every touchdown...

(For once, some of us were excited it wasn't a high scoring game)

And there was a Pita Pit near by... Beka wondered if this was NY's little Gainesville.








Penguin was the worst casualty of the afternoon.

what audrey learns from eva...

friday, friday, friday!

Becky, Pep, and Audrey came into town (YAY). So we set up a monitor and enjoyed drinks in the Quad and on the roof.

eva's an ostrich

This is how Eva hides from the vacuum...

the week in review...

Eva has found a new spot that she insists on being in now that the semester has started and Beka is at her computer more...
This week Beka,

— jumped and screamed in the quad at 8 am with 40+ other people
— passed the spanish language exam
— meditated with Tibetian Monks
— played with play doh (in a class)
— read a reading for class that was like a VH1 documentary
— played with an adorable almost 2 year old
— got a voluptuous mole lifeguard with a surf board in a kinder egg...

(whatchya gonna do with all that junk, all that junk inside that trunk?)
This week Doug,

— learned that his NASA project was unofficially, officially greenlit
— fell down a flight of stairs, shattering glass, but living to tell the tale
— orchestrated a gathering of Florida friends
— thought of new robot designs
— read most of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenence
— held the fantasy football record of 1 in 1
— got a breakdancing cricket in a kinder egg

saturday shopping

We went shopping, finding first a street fair close by... Doug found the Ottoman Empire.
Then we went to the SoHo Levi's store... where Beka found 2 pairs of jeans cheap...
We traveled around to various Levi's Stores, Thrift stores, H&Ms etc across Manhattan before venturing to Brooklyn for 3 more thrifting ventures...

Beka was a bit more successful in finding things than Doug. :(

But we'll be having return adventures...
This was of course the kitties favorite part...

morningbell

We went with friends to dinner...
And then the show... they came back!

















They also brought Doug on stage for a theremin rawkout...

Beka didn't think to turn the video until the end... and by then, they were finished...

And Blogger doesn't like to host these videos... so, it's still back to YouTube...

photo booth

Doug and Beka played with Photo Booth on the iMac...

Everyone does and then posts the pictures somewhere after getting a Mac or playing with one... It's like a rite of passage for Mac owners.

Pushkin however wanted nothing to do with it.




Lick the swirl!

We tried to make Eva a pirate kittie... no such luck...




Double the pleasure,
double the fun,
