today is my dad's birthday. he would have been 82.

in honor of that, me and stefan continued the tradition of eating hawaiian bread. i ate that as a kid a lot. and we had it for breakfast. stefan put his german accent on it and paired it with apple sauce. he also got fancy and warmed the bread in the oven. nice touch!

courtenay, who is actually in hawaii right now, even texted me a picture of a dessert she had with "happy birthday dad" written in chocolate on it. THAT was awesome.

this pic reminds me of a film image for some reason. it's somewhat flat, slightly soft focus, and i washed it out a little. that makes me happy since to me it would mean that i took the pic with my canon ae-1. my dad gave me that camera.

i also had a dream where my mom and dad were having a party and my dad was manning the grill. he was older but was talking (which was something that he couldn't do at the end of his life) and it was all good. THAT was ALSO awesome.

in this pic i look exhausted because i am still decompressing from the past 2.5 weeks of work.

here we are on the highline. it was a pretty sunset.

last night i slept from 9:45 until almost 8.

today we went to union square and got delish apples from the farmer's market. then we went to stefan's client's apartment and saw the renovation, it looked great. then we walked to the apple store in MePa (where did stella mccartney go? i thought she was opening another store in soho and not moving there entirely) and then we walked the highline (above). we went all the way to the end, and then we went to the 2/3 back up to harlem, got some grub, and called it a day. i was still shell shocked from my last 2 weeks at work.

i seriously have never been so happy for a friday in my life.

work is over.

karen started texting me at 5:15 wondering if i was done yet, i didn't leave until 7 but the last hour we had a beer and watched youtube videos, so that was good.

i really need to head back to sf for a bit! tahoe is calling my name.

work is going to give me a seizure!

today i got to run out after 3 for some food, thank god for gourmet garage.

me and the german went to red rooster for a drink, i got the angel of harlem and it was good but i was too wound up to drink it. can you imagine, too stressed to have a cocktail? that might be a first in human history.
