Day 357 reflects from above


Vegas: Day 1. We checked into the hotel and then hit the strip (We were staying off-strip. Very off-strip.) for a few hours. Among the places we visited was the Mirage, home of the greatest Cirque show of all time: Love. I saw the show not long after it opened two Summers ago and wanted to see if we could get tickets to see it again. That part was unsuccessful but we did spend a good long time looking at the merch. I'm telling you, no one in the world is as over show merch as I am but this stuff is unbelievable. Even I would buy most of it. This ceiling hangs between the box office and the store (yeah, they have an actual store) and it's pretty amazing. The epitome of flashy, detailed decor: Vegas-style.

day 359: city cabs

once again, i took a bus ride home because you really do get some great shots from a bus window! nothing beats walking the streets, but on a hot and humid day - the bus will do. (important note: buses = air conditioned). today's exhibit? a close up examination of the top of a taxi.

gnight all!

day 358: new york summer sunset

sometimes after i get home, i'm wiped out. and what that basically translates into is literally fighting to find the energy to take a picture if i haven't already done so. but here i was able to capture a pretty spectacular sunset. enjoy!

day 357: the numbers

j.j. abrams is behind this, i can tell. random numbers on a subway station wall, with no rhyme or reason to them? he's behind this and this is a code for time travel or at the very least something to do with polar bears (sorry, LOST reference.)

day 356: rockin it!

it seems that if i see a pair of converses (or similar type of shoe) i need to snap a picture! I have at least 7 different pictures, from different days, of different converses. Here's an addition to the collection. Still love them. I think its because they epitomize youth, awesomeness and confidence in a single pair. obsessed!

Day 356 can't read the writing on the wall


I know I've posted similar pictures in the past but, come on! Missing letters are always hilarious!

Day 355 drinks the rainbow


BevMo had these pre-mixed cocktails in every color. Sounds gross, looks cool. Plus they're made in Israel. M'tzuyon!

Day 354 can see forever


This is at the top of the Dish, an area of preserved land that belongs to Stanford. It's a 3+ mile trail that we frequently run or walk both for exercise and to get away from life for a while. I think I may have posted a picture from up here before but it's one of my favorite spots in the world and Friday was so clear you could see the Bay Bridge, San Francisco, and the East Bay. I'm still sore from running.

Day 353 #parkingfail


Fail. Need I say more?

Ps. Sorry for the delay, internet has been out for a few days.

day 355: the bus


new discovery! i love the bus. I love the people who get on the bus. I love the bus drivers and i love the erratic blue bus seats. its just a great (air conditioned) place to cruise around for a few hours.

day 354: sunny stroll

sometimes sunshine is just what the body needs. friday was sunny and hot and gross. the brief moments i was outside were enough to make me willing to pay any price to blast my air conditioner for all of eternity.

day 353: G-EAZ(Y)!

soho "street art" is so very interesting for me. I'm not sure what drew me to this pole and this sticker, but I was feeling it. I like how the composition came out, too. I tried a few different angles, but this one was the fave. enjoy!

day 352: shaggy

this man took residence in the union square starbucks. Judging by the number of cups on the table, he's been here for a while. No one seemed concerned about him, not even giving the situation a second glance. Me? I busted out the camera and made it happen. done and done.

Day 352 lights the way


I saw this chandelier in a hotel lobby today. I thought it was so interesting that I went out of my way to take a picture. The bright green against the stark black-and-white lobby is so cool. I wish I lived here.
