this time it’s been due to a combination of working a lot and the nba playoffs… last night i was fortunate enough to catch all of the overtime action in the bulls vs. celtics game… i think it was the most exciting basketball game i’ve ever watched, and i don’t even care about either team… actually, that’s not true… i hate the celtics, so i guess i kind of care… anyway, game seven is on saturday and i don’t think i get to watch it and i’m currently considering investing in a portable tv so that i can somehow have access to the game while at work…

in other news, jon, olivier and i officially swooped on a new apartment… we are going to be moving into the sweater factory lofts on banker in greenpoint… i’m really excited for a bundle of reasons… here’s why:
-rooftop with a wooden deck, unobstructed view of manhattan
-gym so i can get huge
-a “screening room” which features theater seats so the crew can come watch movies whilst pretending we are at a movie theater sans the $12 modern day ticket prices
-about two blocks from mccarren park
-about half the distance to the subway
-a solid common space in our apartment
-cable so i can watch games at home
-high-speed internet that i hope will never fail me
-freedom to do whatever the heck i want to my bedroom (think the utc house)
-living with jon, whom i am always conspiring new ideas with

in other news, and probably bigger news, i have been given the district manager position for steven alan’s new york stores… i can’t put into words how eager i am to tackle this new position… i also cant’ put into words how grateful i am for this opportunity… i always try to take a positive spin on whatever situation i am in, telling people i’m living the dream… well kids, i ain’t just trying to be positive anymore… i truly am living the dream…
