Yes, I've been rather bad, not updating.

Let's see... I last updated a week ago. What's happened? Most of my roommates have moved in, so it's much livelier and good all round. I've been cooking and now that Joyce is here, she is too. Last night, she made quesadillas. I love this roommate thing. Tonight I believe we're baking cookies. Nestle Tollhouse cookies, no less.

Breakfast at Tiffany's in Central Park was amazing. I think that is one of the grand things about New York, the ability to go some place where you don't know anybody and still feel part of a whole. Plus, we got free chocolate and cheddar popcorn.

Then there was just a whole lot of work.

The weekend came and the Bronx Zoo was the destination for Saturday. Unfortunately, it was sweltering, muggy heat that dominated the day. Thus, we headed for the shelter of the air-conditioned World of Birds, which was actually rather lovely. I've always loved zoos. But somehow, I prefer aquariums, if not for the complete air-conditioned state, then for the magnificent, dominated feeling when standing in front of a large tank's window. Seeing the fish swim by, watching the sharks slide through the water--I could do it all day.

In any case, Sunday was errand day. Shopped at Target again (huuuuurrah) and then Hong Kong Supermarket, my grocery of choice.

Lovin' the kitchen. Seriously. It makes me feel so domestic. And plus, it's fun to have an audience for my food.

Tomorrow: U.S. Open time!
