Yes, I am on a hunt for boots. Boots for the winter when it hits. I've been trying on boots this week on my to and from different areas. Still haven't found like that perfect pair. However, I have seen these two pairs of ASICS that are rather nice. The red one I like more.

This is Styuvesent Town & Peter Cooper Village from 1st Avenue and 15th St.. Such very nice weather we've been having all this week. We even hit into the 70's this week, totally bizzare.

There's this old Cîtroen near where I live I finally got a chance to take a picture of it.

Giant X-Mas Tree

Here Styuvesent Town workers are busy decorating this giant Christmas Tree. I remember them building the scaffolding. I wish I could go climb on it, however they have a guard on duty at all times circling the tree, which is crazy. They're crazy.

It is now officially Christmas time, so New York is changing all over the place. Store windows, streets, etc etc. Here in Stuyvesent Town they have begun their decorating.

Lobster Dinner

This is our friend the lobster, now a tasty morsel.

Lobster's End...

This is the death of our friend the lobster by Audrey's Dad the chef. He was a rather tasty lobster in the end. His sacrifice will not be forgotten and will always be remembered as a transformation from regular sea creature to tasty dinner.

Lobster's Quiet Protest.


After coming back from finding a winter coat Audrey's Dad was in preperation for making a good dinner. Including a fresh lobster. This is our friend the lobster, he's not particularly thrilled and doesn't emote much for the camera I think it's possibly protesting quietly.

That lil slider, sooo tasty. Needs ketchup though.

The Carton

The White Castle slider carton. Audrey and Me split a Sack Meal, which was 4 sliders w/cheese, those crinkly like fries, and a Coke. So, good. However, I ended up devouring 3 out of the 4 burgers. Not sure if Audrey will ever forgive me. Actually my mouth is starting to water thinking about them right now, mmm.

What I Crave

Here I am standing in front of a White Castle location just outside Chicago. I have finally arrived.

That's right I got all three games without having to buy a single BK food product. The worker was like, "Oh so you don't want to destroy your innards just get the games?" Yes. Does anyone have an XBox I can play Sneak King on? Oh, yeah and Audrey might wanna tag along.

Me and T.K.

So, we found something on that day in downtown Chicago. However, still no coat. We set forth the next day looking for one this time to a different area. We also had the other goals of acquiring the Burger King Games that had just been released, or rather I did and to go to White Castle since I had seen one nearby and was like OH MY GOSH WHITE CASTLE! First stop Burger King. Here I am with The King aka T.K.. Both got the sunglasses going, oh yeah. The double crossandwhich, meat and cheese, meat and cheese.

No Flask is Holier Than Thou...

Indeed. I believe it would go well with the virgin mary hanging from the rearview mirror of many cars in East. L.A.. They should be sold as a set maybe you get a price break if you order both online through Amazon. That'd be awesome. Anyways, post-thanksgiving Audrey and I and her sister, Jasmine, set out on a quest to find me winter provisions to be properly prepared. I don't have a winter coat, gloves, and the rest. So, we departed and went into downtown Chicago. So, nice during Christmas. We went into the Urban Outfitters and we found this wonderful religious trinket. Oh and apparently American Apparel has pants that are still in the R&D phase for sale. Audrey tried on a pair, really weird, testbed pants, how does that work? I thought that was something for like the Military Industrial Complex and such.

DAD The Movie

Yeah, I almost forgot when Audrey and I went out to get supplies for the apple sauce she needed to get a card for her dad since it's his birthday. This one didn't make the cut but was rather "visually stunning." It definitely led the pack in the special effects category.
