Boba the Fett

My poor mommy came into town with my renovation still underway: no shower, partially functioning kitchen, half installed closet, dust and boxes everywhere, and no end in sight. This put a huge damper on my big Thanksgiving dinner plans but we made do. Mostly, we went out and ate everywhere. Being Boostier-less these days made it nice that I had some Mommy company.

Snuck a photo at Tim Burton's MOMA exhibit. Look how cute the roend guy is. Mom got to see the exhibit on the preshow cause she has the membership. Boostier, Douh, Chaybun, and I had to suffer through the lines, crowds, and the sauna that was the gallery on opening day. In the end we couldn't take it and sought refuge in the cafe. We'll just have to go back and see it again with less people.


Food at the modern is SO good. Look at that perfect pouch of fish. The Fett had the fish and I had quail that was cooked to perfection. Everything about the modern is so good. I basically spent all day at the Moma =D


I wanted to go check out furniture at my favorite furniture store, A & G Merch, so we decided to have lunch at Sea and have a walk around Williamsburg. Gotta love that BK.



Did you see the pic up there. Yes, that is the famed cheesecake from The Standard Grill that I have been craving for AGES. I finally got it yet they changed their blueberry compote to apple which was good but not as good. Winter. They offered a traditional Thanksgiving Supper that sounded pretty tasty but I doubt came anywhere near as awesome as cookfest 2007.

Cookfest 2009 was made by The Fett. Not a big soiree, but cozy enough with boxes as a dining table and packaging paper as a table cloth. The chicken mom made was great; mushroom, pancetta, almond sauce. Mmm. Our festive part of the meal had to be the yams...or maybe the pumpkin pie. (That by the way still doesn't cook in the right amount of time even with new fancy oven...)


Chikalicious had a fall themed dessert this time. Butternut squash soup with biscuits and honey thyme ice cream. So delicious.


My bunn fluff love!!!

Dreams

So it's been awhile. I've been dealing with my apartment that has been an on going fiasco. Today, however, is a day to celebrate. I have INTERNET in my apartment. There's no shower yet (been going to the gym to do that) but INTERNET is KEY to my survival. The iphone just doesn't cut it sometimes.

When unemployed you have to find things to do to keep busy. Mostly those things involve, food, visual entertainment, and drinks. However, these things cost MONEY, which when unemployed, and living off of the measly unemployment the government offers, it's just impossible. My goal of course is to get work that at least feeds me so I'm not spending money and my time is occupied by my own free labor.

Some pics from a "tv pilot" I worked on, for now called, Dreams. It's a show about models and how you're supposed to feel sorry for them. Yet, they're not models, and no one feels sorry for them. I think it'll be a hit. I stood in the freezing cold for hours for what felt like no reason.

Hopefully something interesting that needs an art department will float my way.
