Hi beautiful souls!

Just some captures from my Labor Day Weekend at EZoo on Randall’s Island here in NYC with my boyfriend (Paul) and our beloved Andy.

The highlight: Steve Aoki’s mash up with Smells Like Teen Spirit (I died) and the buckets of belgian-style fries.

Tiesto, Hardwell, 3Lau and Steve Aoki were probably my favorites. After weeks of packing and moving and working non-stop it felt good to embrace my inner techno princess for a few days. Feeling the sun on my face, the bass in my bones and churning of the crowd.

Thanks for your patience as I get back up and running here - I’m all settled into the East Village and hope to get back into the groove with writing and my new surroundings. Al is getting settled in too, he’s just still a little unsure of these crazy things we call bikes.

“I am old now, or at least, I am no longer young, and everything I see reminds me of something else I’ve seen, such that I see nothing for the first time…It is the curse of age, that all things are reflections of other things.”

“I believed myself to be ready then; now, with the hindsight brought by greater age, I see myself for the naive and inexperienced young woman I was. We all begin in such a manner, though. There is no quick route to experience.”

“The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.”
