where’s chris? [at jfk]
Monday, April 13th, 2009
i’m sitting in a semi-comfy chair at jfk after paying way too much for wifi via boingo, and paying way too little for a fossil watch (duty free = yes!) - which will be delivered to me at the gate when i board the plane. class.
i’ve got about two more hours before i board a 747 and fly to heathrow with a bunch of annoying british people and their screaming kids with nintendo DS’s. luckily i’ve secured a window seat by checking in online, have an ample supply of antihistamine sleeping pills and didn’t sleep last night. prognosis? a comatose flight to london-town for chris.
after a transfer in heathrow (which will probably involve taking a bus to another terminal) and a two-hour layover, i’m off to lyon where i’ll be stationed for two weeks performing with big dance theater. then it’s off to spain and anywhere my little heart desires for four more weeks. woo hoo.
be sure to check THIS site. my blog. for photos and updates. i’ve just decided to roll that way.
so deal.
i’m kinda abandoning facebook and twitter for this journey. i just want my documentation of this trek to be on my terms and not get lost in the standard sea of tweets and status updates.

two photos from sophie’s
Saturday, April 11th, 2009
jess lost her passport so we couldn’t get into sing sing to sing sing.
so we went to sophie’s. good old haunt on 5th between a & b where we used to get trashed at in college. i used to think that it had since turned into a nazi bar, but apparently it was copasetic.
we played big buck hunter, which is still there in the back. (side note : if you’re looking to play big buck hunter at good old cheap shots n’ beer on 1st ave. you’ll be out of luck my friend. looks like sophie’s is the only place that still gets people’s joy of shooting fake animals.)
i kicked jess and nathan’s (pictured above) ass. i shot a hippo.

Live streaming video by Ustream
xeni from boing boing writes :
Snoop Dogg has a webshow on Ustream. As I blog, it’s live right now. The show consists entirely of him sitting in a chair in his house, smoking a shit-ton of weed, and playing really good old-school music. Sometimes, singing along for a bar or two, or talking back to the chat room intermittently in Snoop-isms. Then, walking away entirely, leaving the webcam fixed on a poster of Snoop on the wall for, like, a half hour at a time. Seriously, that’s it. Where the evolutionary arc of reality TV finally ends.
i happened to be watching when snoop logged in for his ‘wake and bake show,’ and i watched the number of viewers jump from 0 to over 1,000 in literally minutes.
i know i have better things to blog about (stay tuned), but this couldn’t wait.

dear friends.
as some of you may know, i’m about to embark on a six week journey through euro-land (aka europe). the first two weeks of my stead will be spend in lyon, france performing with big dance theater in their new piece “comme tojours here i stand.” then it’s off to spain and various other points of interest on the continent.
i’ve been trying to decide where exactly to go, since trans-euro airfare is so super-cheap (see easyjet.com), and part of my reconnaissance has included just looking at cities in google maps’ satellite view.
amsterdam is definitely on my list of places to hit up, but i noticed something funny as i was revisiting the dyke-y city via the interweb. (see above).
the big blurry area to the right of NEMO (an awesome kid’s museum) is baffling to me. in street view it looks like a construction site. maybe i’ll go there and take some pics to let all you lovely readers get the inside scoop.

who is this ghastly woman and why does she taunt me so?
all i can see through my early morning feverish fog is her saccharine grin and her girraffe neck taunting me with bonus deals and rebates if i order 12 boxes of dailes. 12 BOXES!
jesus.
ps - why is your website URL a phone number?
