I have been busy the past few days, even though I feel like I just lay around in my dorm until half of the afternoon is gone. It's okay, I just really enjoy being in my room because it's so comfy and homey. I suppose that's a good thing.
Well, my first exciting event was yesterday afternoon. I was NOT in a good mood at all, but I dragged myself to the hell that is Bed, Bath and Beyond for a stupid shower caddy. I stopped in the Starbucks on my corner and proceeded to stuff my face with a rice krispy treat. Literally stuff, as I walked down the sidewalk. All of a sudden, I heard a little voice that sounded familiar. I looked to my left, and it was Amy Poehler! I looked even closer and realized she was with Miriam Tolan and her daughters! It was such a weird coincidence! I stopped and awkwardly said hello, and they of course (in a friendly manner, but still legitimately) asked what I was doing there. It was very fun to point half a block down and say that I just moved into that dorm a few days ago. They were very nice and remembered my name and all that fun jazz. That definitely put me in a better mood!
Last night, I ventured to the UCB to see the house team the Stepfathers. Their shows are literally almost beautiful to watch because of the smart improv they are capable of. There was literally a scene towards the end of the first half in which they brought back every other scene they had done so far. It's really inspiring and, of course, hilarious. They are definitely the best UCB house team. I loitered around the theater until midnight and met up with a couple of Dangerboxers to perform in the free improv jam. It went as expected. Jams are never really the place to showcase talent or do/see really fresh improv. It was still fun, though.
Today, after I finally decided to get up, the roommates and I went back to the hell that is Bed, Bath and Beyond and Kmart for kitchenware. That was stressful, but needed to be done, and now I can cook my macaroni and cheese. :) We someone get mugged, unsuccessfully. The mugger did not get the lady's purse, although it was a scary situation to witness.
Then for dinner, I met up with my friends Dominique and Chelsea and headed to extremely hip Williamsburg, Brooklyn for dinner. We ate at this cool restaurant with sand for the floor. We then were priveleged enough to witness the sunset over the Manhattan skyline. It was gorgeous, and a very nice and refreshing night in general.
Tomorrow I get to see some quality ASSSSCAT action. What could be better?
