Day 14 - January 14, 2008

This is the Brooklyn Museum, which is right across the street from my house. I think that it is such an amazing building and I really love it. It was also snowing a little bit at the time of this picture, but that doesn't exactly show up in this picture. Oh well, still pretty.

Day 13 - January 13, 2008

Although technically I cannot take credit for this photo, it is still the one that I am choosing to represent today. I saw the movie Charlie Wilson's War today and I really loved it. Rarely do movies have the opportunity to tell a story that is as complex and wonderful as this one. You have to know a lot about the way US government works and have a basic knowledge of the Cold War to get a lot of the jokes in this movie, but if you have that it is really enjoyable. I really admire Tom Hanks and his choice of movies, because reflecting on it right now I think that his movies have made lasting impressions on me more than any other actor. From Philadelphia to Saving Private Ryan to Forrest Gump. There is just something incredible there and this movie is no exception.

Day 12 - January 12, 2008

Well the big news today is that the Packers won their first playoff game and by 42-20 when they were down by two touchdowns in the first 4 minutes. Tonight, I went to watch Landon also, so I thought I would take a picture of him for my picture of the day. He is obsessed with legos, so I took his picture with his lego collection

Day 11 - January 11, 2008

So this is kinda funny, because I actually had a really busy day and didn't seem to take any good pictures from it. I had a really full day at work. Then I meet up with some friends for happy hour at Soda, which is this great bar not far from my place. Angela, Katie and Liz who I worked with last year were there. Also there were a bunch of TFA people that I knew there as well. Then Jen came over and we watched the first disc of the new season of Big Love, which is what this picture is of! Lame I know, but I tried!

Day 10, January 10, 2008

Well today I had my second day at a new job and then I met up with a friend from last year's job, Angela Schneider-Hogan. We had a great time catching up and it was amazing to see her Brooklyn apartment. I mean, sweet potato fries, red wine and cupcakes, what more can you ask for? We ate at this delicious place called Picked Fences in Flatbush, Brooklyn.

Day 9 - January 9, 2008

Well pictures at night are never quite what you want them to be, but this picture is of all the Christmas Trees that line Park Avenue. It is really gorgeous and makes me happy.

Day 8 - January 8, 2008

Well, today I went to meet Kumi for lunch on the Upper East Side at this great Thai place. Then we went for a walk through Central Park. This is a random statue which is right next to the Met. It was pretty adorable how this little kid was climbing around like he was a bear. I have to say a sixty degree in January is certainly something to be enjoyed and it was cute to see him making the most of it.
