I would rather have the inability to distinguish between babies and english muffins, than be plagued with the inescapable and involuntary tendency to insert the word "bucket" every other word when speaking. I would also prefer to be three feet to the left of where I really am, than the inability to distinguish between the taste of mint and the concept of increasing.

so wilma gave us quite a spanking on monday. around 8am we lost power when the winds picked up. you are privy to know that i'm a big fat wuss and i did in fact, turn our hallway into a safety cocoon. we did have some minor water damage but were surprised to find our neighborhood wrecked. it was amazing to see everyone walking (carrying) their little dogs, surveying the damage. sam and i ventured to check out downtown. after realizing neither of us had any cash, we decided not to aimlessly drive around wasting precious fuel. on the causeway they were stopping all vehicles to check if you were a resident of south beach, otherwise you had to turn around. for dinner it was hurricane salad and granola bars by candle light. then a few warm beers and alternating backgammon and uno (which was hard to play cuz blue and green look a lot alike in the dark). when the power is out and it's dark, all you wanna do is sleep. and i did until i heard the cheers of our neighbors at 1am. the rest of the beach is still without power and NPR says some portions of south florida could be out of power for a month...let's hope thats FIU in particular. today was a beautiful day for concepting by the pool and being thankful. lindsey and i headed to the beach to take pics for class and found a coffee shop open. people were stopping their cars to find out where we got it...a hot commodity (no pun intended...okay maybe). here is my attempt at some photo journalism....

By request, here are some more pictures of London. I took a total of 149 but here are a few. I went on a bus tour with my girl Meredith. Good Times. We rode around on the open top deck all day long. Had I known, I would have taken the tour the first week I was here. We've got a big week ahead of us but I'm already planning next weekend....Natural History Museum, Westminister Abbey, Saatchi Gallery and maybe the British Museum if we have time. It's running out. I only have two weeks left....sadface.

so last wed. night, saatchi and saatchi had a little shindig celebrating the opening of G.U.M. (green urban marketing) at the agency bar "the pregnant man." the entertainment included Saatchi's new girl group and UK's "supposed" best dj Jeremy Healy. everyone got crunk and here are the pictures to prove it, along with some other random images.
