Home Renovations, Remodeling, Etc

Last week was, as my friend Ben from Maine says, a corker!

I was away for five days in the BVI on an edit/sales meeting with my company and when I returned, I came to my new home! Jen and I are the owners of a 1 BR coop in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn. Right now, as the pictures above illustrate, we have lots of boxes and little furniture. But alas dear reader, orders are being delivered from Room & Board, West Elm, and the Door Store. We are painting, replacing the base molding, and giving the place a general spruce up. It’s in excellent shape already; just needs to feel like home. I will have fortnightly updates here…

Loving Brooklyn

Gotta kick off this blog with a shout-out to Brooklyn. Brooklyn! What a nite, albeit a short one, I had yesterday evening. A rooftop party on PPW. Drank and ate and took in the 360-degree views. And the weather could not have been better-70 degrees, low humidity, a light breeze. Went across the street for a bit and caught a few songs from Maceo Parker, former James Brown sax player. As the crowd bum rush began nearing the end of the set, we (thought) we were wise and took off. Alas, we missed a one-song, seven-minute performance by his purpleness, Prince. I like the weekday nites that are filled with fun, and you're still home by 11 pm, ready for the next day of work.
