The Bigger One

Happy Birthday Tyler!!!
Hope the day is wonderful and all your crazy, wild, Star-Wars-Indy-lovin' dreams come true!

Good luck with all those candles, big guy,

Rent on Broadway!!!

So, long story short, we won tickets three days ago to go and see Rent last night! It was frickin' awesome and a total surprise (we didn't even know we had been entered to win the tickets!). We took a few pictures, but none from inside the theater as photography was aggresively prohibited.
Rent will end its 12 year+ run this summer, so if you can make it out to New York (ha!) check it out soon!

Clark W. Griswold drinks a tall chai

So just a quick post to let everyone know that the one and only Chevy Chase came through Jesse's Starbucks today, ordering a tall Caramel Frappuccino and a tall Chai Latte. Exciting news, right?!
He was very polite, said "thank you," and was way taller in real life! Woo-hoo.

Nicole has been on the hunt for graduation dresses. So far everything is going well, assuming we win the lottery between tonight and this time tomorrow. Wish us luck. Graduation is a multi-ceremony affair, involving both indoor and outdoor settings. Complicated but imminent. Onward! Check out the website for the Riverside Church where the main ceremony will be held. It's super famous and has been used in lots of movies.

Weather's getting much better; Lucy remains cute; Haagen-Dazs is delicious and all-natural!

Enjoy your drink, Dusty Bottoms --

Two months and counting (down)...

Hey people! Happy Easter! Hope all is well with everybody.

Things continue to stay busy around here. The weather's changing, which means Lucy gets walked at a much higher frequency. Nicole's school is winding down -- as Jesse's winds up -- and graduation is imminent! That promises to be an exciting, whirlwind time since she graduates May 21st and we move out of our current apartment on May 23rd. At the same time, Jesse is just beginning his ASM training at his Starbucks and hopes his training can potentially be suspended and resumed somewhere else.

We hope Easter/spring break/3-day weekend/whatever was good for everyone!

Be back soon,
Jesse and Nicole

New pictures, old news

Hello everyone! All is well here in New York City, other than the below-freezing midday high temperatures. Lucy went to the groomers -- or "to the spa," as we say -- which is quite an ordeal when it's below freezing outside. She only weighs about 5 pounds! Not much meat to keep herself warm. Thank god she has her "I Love New York" sweatshirt.

We recently put up more pictures at Jesse's Picasa web album. We saw some truly amazing works of art when we visited the Museum of Modern Art. We saw pieces by Picasso and Monet, and even the infamous "Starry Night" by Van Gogh. There was also quite a bit of stuff that made absolutely no sense, like frames hanging on the wall with blank, untouched pieces of canvas in them. Modern. Check it out!

Lucy just dropped her Giggle With Elmo toy on my keyboard, so it looks like it's time to play with the little poophead. Until next time!

Loving the MoMA madness,
Jesse and Nicole
