The Rest of It

How did my show go?

One person showed up. Fortunately, that one person was The Film Panel Notetaker, who does a good job of explaining the show so I don't have to.

Friday and Saturday, I hung out with my friend, Frank. We were supposed to go see Dandi Wind at Studio B. They cancelled out right before the show, so I got my money back. Frank was disappointed, since he'd seen the band before and had been all dressed up for the occasion.

The next afternoon, I met up with Frank and his girlfriend, and we hung out at Coney Island, since it's going to be "renovated" (re: gentrified). I shot plenty of video, so I preserve it while I still could. (I also shot some footage Labor Day.) Then we got on the F train, eventually parted ways, and I went back to my apartment and started packing.

I finished packing, then went into midtown Manhattan for the last time just to walk around. I left the apartment @ 9:20am. It was a pig to lug all my luggage around, but other than that, my ride back went okay.

I wouldn't mind moving down there, but I'm not sure if I'd want to be in that neighborhood in particular. It's not a bad neighborhood necessarily, but what given what you're paying for rent, I don't know if it's necessarily worth it. Maybe Fort Green? Mott Haven? Sunset Park? Harlem???

Finally, I made some videos, and I'm hoping to get one or two of them uploaded soon.

Where's Serge?

I've to put myself on a fast from reading books, because I have to get this show finished. I have a lot of books on loan from the library, and ones that I ordered from Amazon.com that I haven't read yet. It sucks, because I want to get them read, but I also have to have my priorities.

Today was my last visit to the Warren Hunting Smith Library. I haven't been banned or anything, but the students are coming back, and I'm not going to have the same peace and quiet I've had most of the summer. I may go back now and again, but I won't be going on a regular basis, as I have for the past two and a half months. Besides, I think I've taken care of what I've needed to take care of.

Tomorrow night is the premiere of High School Musical 2, and I'm trying to find my Serge Gainsbourg CD. I have the cover, where is it? I am going through serious withdrawal right now...
