I was in New York recently for a quick visit. Caught up with some amazing and dear friends.
The only photos I took were of two bodega cats.

Seems about right.

Packing my apartment for an upcoming, short move. Nostalgia is not conducive to efficiency, but man it is fun.

I bough this shirt in 2016 and it is more relevant than ever.

I’m all for my clothes lasting, but not like this.
My very best marching shirt.

Do not use Tylenol recreationally. Got it.
