Utah in August

Carly just sent me a bunch of pics from when her and Fritz came to Utah. It's got me really missing green, and mountains and sage brush.

Snow

It has been snowing a lot here today and I may be one of the only people in this city that LOVES it. The streets are so peaceful (relatively) when it snows hard here and I've been eating it up. Yet, I must admit that most of the day I have been in bed reading my latest guilty pleasure, but still I love the snow.

The guilty pleasure is guilty because it's SUPER cheesy and not written terribly well, but I'm smitten by this book called "The Daily Coyote". This girl from New York ended up living in Wyoming and was given a baby coyote. Most of the book is about her living in this rickety old cabin on the property of a cowboy she met out there, living with the coyote, her cat, and this horse (the horse lives outside).

Any who, i'm totally smitten by this coyote. This is one of my dream lives - except that I would prefer the cowboy lived with me and the coyote in the rickety old cabin, and I could do without the cat - but either way it's totally dreamy and has me really really missing Max. I love the west and animals. K, so turns out I'm the cheesy one.

Here are some pic from the blog - http://www.dailycoyote.net/

I want one.

These friendly friends came up from DC to help me house & dog sit last week and I was ridiculously pathetic at taking photos. I did get a few quick snaps as they headed out the door (elevator) one day without me because they had bikes and I had to work. LAME. It was fun anyway and we had some quality lounging time in the big rig house.

Jealous.

Side not on this sofa is that my clients asked me to help sell it. They offered me a commission, which I kind of shrugged off. Oh, it's no problem, I'll just start looking around and doing some research on it. As it turns out, and I shouldn't be surprised, that it's a $39,000 designer piece from the 50's. Ya, just my entire student loan sitting there in the corner of their loft with a pee stain on it. Classic.

Playing on the Subway

Bro tried to play his electric guitar on the subway for money today.

Poor fool got busted though

Beyond spoiled by my clients. After house sitting/dog sitting for them this past week Tracey has offered to let me stay here for the next week. A little apartment that she owns in the West Village. It was the first apartment she ever lived in in New York and she can't bare to part with it - lucky for me.

I'm house sitting here in New York.

It's alright.

Netti

Have you ever used one of these? They hurt so good if you're sick, but they're soooo worth it. I swear it healed me last week.

And no, this is not me.
