very simple

Tuesday was beautiful out, and it was also the museum mile festival, where all of the museums on Fifth Avenue open their doors and let people in for free for the evening. So I headed up there with my dad, and we hit the Cooper-Hewitt and the Met (where we met up with my stepmom). Got yelled at for taking pictures in the C-H, so only one from there, and most of the photogenic stuff was outside, but we hit the Picasso exhibit, the Egypt exhibit and Big Bambu at the Met. And had cocktails. Very civilized.

I’m, as always, too lazy to individually label the photos, so you’ll have to guess what’s what.

these were my 3 favorite pics from photo class, so I framed them and hung them in my foyer.

another oddity bought at the tate modern back in 2001

I have this weird compulsion whenever I go into museum stores that I need to buy the quirkiest thing I can find. Which is why I ended up buying this (among other things) at the Tate Modern gift shop back in 2001. Of course, after watching a few episodes of Hoarders, I have visions of myself buried under really quirky bric-a-brac.
