things

so new york, which i have been back from for almost two weeks now, was a really great vacation.  i know now it seems almost ridiculous to write about or anything, but i don't know.  i just don't feel like i did anything so super fantastically special that needs to be written about.  it was mostly normal things like shopping and eating, just in a different city.  (okay, there was the party at the moma and that was pretty sweet, but mostly it was just people hanging out.  in the moma.)

i did get to go to the cloisters, which i had no idea existed previously.  i really liked it because it was a lot of architectural and stonework type of things which, while i like art, sometimes i like this stuff better.  the things with an actual use, but beautiful to look at as well. 

i haven't too much since i got back, i had to work the day after i flew in and so i've been doing a lot of that.  and then i was spending most of my time editing photos, then stephanie gave me a bunch of music so i've been playing with my itunes.  (i have 2200+ songs on there and that doesn't include all of my cds.  i think i need to do some weeding out.) 

also, i went to david's birthday party on saturday, followed by another stay at cornell with my sister.  i am not even kidding when i say i took 60 photos of david.  he's just too cute not to.

and today my dad did my taxes and i'm getting about 60% more back than i thought i was.  i think that is the only benefit to being poor, i get all of that money back.
