can't stop, won't stop... nyc in august

basically since the beginning of summer we've off and running city to city, event to event. it's been great, after a long week of work, its good to party down with fam and friends. but the traveling is no joke. i think i took a day from work in the middle of the week just to recop from the past weekend and prepare for the next. so i think i'll start this quick photoblog in the beginning of august.

for our wedding aniversary ape n i planned a trip out to nyc. we totally love nyc and always have a good time here.

classic jumping pix in time square. if you haven't been lately the street are blocked off to traffic and table and chairs line the street to invite chillaxin. i wonder if its still blocked off now that summer is here.


we planned to see a show but didn't want to pay full price. so we decided to take a chance and do the TKTS discount thing to see if we could get watch a show for 20% to 50% off. we waited in a long but fast moving line in times square but to ended up not purchasing tix from TKTS because they didnt have seats together for the show I wanted to go to. But we had a back up plan and purchased tix to Lion King directly at their theater. full price but it was worth it.


before the show we met up with jp for lunch....and a pitcher of sangria. food yum, sangria yum. itis and tipsy before the show yikes.

coming oct 21st

that's our dining table! come reserve a seat. we'll be settling on our modest condo on that day. eek! that's the big news. haven't been able to blog about much because there's been soo much going on. work, fam, friends, traveling, enjoying life, stressing out life, haha you know how it is. twitter may be the best way to see what i'm up to, http://twitter.com/jazzyjae

but if you really want to stick around here and stalk me...if i get around to it, a super awesome summer picture post will be worth the wait.

time wasted...

random thoughts...

seems like i've been wasting my creative talent or just delaying projects that i've had in mind. i'm not making it an excuse but it's like there's never enough extra time or energy to make things happen. but if other people can do it, why can't i?

so i'm gonna start with paint. i totally suck at painting. i didnt do well in college in art fundamentals with paint and i'm sure this first project will reflect my poopoo skills. but i have to start somewhere. i've been saying i've been wanting to do artwork for our place for the past couple of years. ape even bought be paint and a canvas for xmas last year or was it two years ago. that's been collecting dust.

so since the apt is a mess and in the process of moving, i'm gonna go ahead and add to the mess and make my own mess. it's gonna be a late night too, we've got plenty to do tonight like help friends out with their wedding stuff, play with diggy, start a plan to pack, do paperwork etc. but if i don't do something tonight then i have a feeling it will never get done. and hopefully me writing this down will make stick to the plan.

Big Buns revisited....

We had Big Buns yesterday and got the real burger this time. Last time i got a bangin mahi mahi burger during lent. Def try one of those if you like fish. The burger was really tasty, fresh, juicy, and had great curb appeal. but it wasn't too memorable like a Ray's or Good Stuff. Overall I was satisfied with no complaints...maybe the bun was too big. You should check out Big Buns if you're into sauces too, they allow you to choose one of their handful of special sauces on the side. They're really good with the burger or with the fries. Check out the sweet potoato fries too! So, I'll rank it 4th in the DC metro burger competition. 1. Good Stuff Eatery. 2. Ray's Hell Burger. 3. Five Guys.

Eat it!
