Months in Pictures

A lot has happened and I am terrible at updating this blog. Lisa, one of my favorite friends came for a visit from Montreal for a long weekend and hike, Thanksgiving came and went and now its December! Below are some of the highlights.

The Christmas Market in Union Square is amazing, I love NYC this time of year. 


My Team Mates Lauren 24 Birthday in New Jersey, right after this her party got thrown out for being too obnoxious, thankfully we were not apart of it! 


A rainy walk to work. 


Cory and I always do a park/museum/Zoo instead of black Friday shopping. 


Chayla made an amazing Friendsgiving dinner the day after Thanksgiving

Fall 2013

It is officially fall in NYC. Cory and I went on a lot of adventures this weekend, the Cloisters Museum today which is 45 minutes up north by Fort Tryon. The Cloisters is a Gothic museum with everything being solely medieval/Gothic, including the gardens. They had the famous Unicorn tapestries I love as well as some amazing art.

We also went to central park on Saturday to take pictures by the old bridge and the leaves that are a-changing.  

We were also able to go to Pickle Day which was.....interesting.

Pickle Day on the Lower East Side is Cory's Christmas Day.

So Far Stuff Has Happened

Work has been keeping me super busy, my promotion is finally reflecting in my paycheck starting in November with a new base/commission structure. 

A lot has happened and out of laziness, I'll let the photos tell the stories. 

Spoiler alert 'Hurty Time' = PMS



Me and Fifi show off our mutual age and favorite graphic novels (kids books)


The Last Unicorn



I always ask Cory to sketch via Snapchat, sometimes i can grab a photo







Cory and I on break at work (break room has a guitar for all employees to use). Notice the new world trade center in back



Zocdoc gave Cory and I free tickets to an off Broadway play 'Becoming Dr.Ruth' with the actress Debra Jo Rupp, (the mom from that 70's show). It was amazing and inspiring. From the website, "From fleeing the Nazis in the Kindertransport and joining the Haganah in Jerusalem as a scout and sniper, to her struggles to succeed as a single mother coming to America, Becoming Dr. Ruth is filled with the humor, honesty and life-affirming spirit of Karola Ruth Siegel, the girl who became “Dr. Ruth”, Americaʼs most famous sex therapist."  http://www.becomingdoctorruth.com/




Went out to dinner with Angela and her new boyfriend. She had two sips of a drink and was wasted. Luckily I was not and took lots of photos to show her later. 




Joined the Zocdoc volunteer club so we had our first activity on New York Cares Day. We went to an Elementary school and our assignment was to paint the entire fence after brushing off the old paint/dirt. We had to paint both sides from front to back and it took about 4 1/2 hours. The entire fence wrapped around the school in a not so affluent area, so lots of people stopped to say something either encouraging or frightening.
