listening to: covenant - united states of mind

craving: tea and scones at this place. i went there once with a girl from my writing workshop class second semester and it rocks. apparently rupert everett goes there quite a bit too. the place just drips british, and their tea for two is delicious.

last night: stopped by urban outfitters on my way home. they have like four or five nyc locations, but they’re all within a few blocks of each other, all in the village. that seems rather silly to me. you’d think they’d have like a village location, a midtown location, an upper east location, etc. but no. anyway, i bought a tablecloth thing for my kitchen table, and some more urban decay nail polish. this color is this really thick metallic silver called ’strip’. i’m still working on furnishing and decorating [not to mention cleaning] my apartment, but it’s starting to look pretty good.

estimated hours of sleep: almost eight.

so far today: the q is such a bitch right now. it doesn’t go to my stop because of some track construction or something - it terminates at the stop right before mine, which is too far to walk from and it makes me late. this has been going on for a couple of weeks now and will continue until early september. so i have to change at 34th street for the n or r and take it to lexington and 59th, which is like five blocks from my office, and then walk from there. it’s the change at 34th that bugs me - the trains take forever, so i have to leave earlier now or i’ll be late. so now i leave my house at 7:20 to get to work by 8:45. bah. i hate brooklyn.

current plans for later today: don’t know yet. might be going to the movies with draven or something; we’ll see what’s up later. i have to start planning for this trip to michigan on friday. i haven’t been there in so long… it must be at least like five or six years by now. maybe more. i used to spend most of my summers there when i was really young.

what else: it’s been a while since i’ve worn non-black nailpolish. i rather like it. they also had this nice deep iridescent purple, but that doesn’t really go with anything i have. i might get a blue to go with my hair.
