us weekend

this weekend was nice and relaxing. friday's weather was discouraging, so i spent the day doing laundry and lazing, and then we ordered in indian food and caught up on our season finales. (oh my gosh, lost.) saturday was gorgeous, so we spent the day on foot, walking park slope with a stop for tasti delite and a ramble through the park. everyone was out on saturday, soaking in the sunshine and blue skies. prospect park hosted baseball games for the small and tall, a wedding or two, a number of picnics, many happy dogs, and us, holding hands and making plans (for the new apartment.) saturday night i went to an 80s-themed birthday party tragically cut short by the fact that i had to work at 8 am on sunday.

it was a brooklyn weekend--i didn't get on the train once, and i definitely didn't go into manhattan. it was a nice weekend, but we've been so consumed with apartments and travel that i feel like we haven't been exploring as much as i like to. for valentines day, i made s an "us map" to new york city, a sort of resident's tourist guide of the places i want us to visit. and so i propose a poll (you can vote in the comments. and s, you can vote too): which of the following should we do next?

1. a trip to the south street seaport to see bodies the exhibition, which results in a post full of "eww! ... but also ... cool!"

2. a day at the museum of natural history. more eww/cool, but artsier. (this post may require references to noah baumbach.)

3. a morning walking the lower east side on the orchard street walking tour. it'll be more blogging about bagels, and other important jewish-new york landmarks.

vote or die.
