Day 342: Yelle

Birthday part II was seeing Yelle for a second time. Obviously we were right down front. I got to hold Grand Marnier's hand.

My 32nd birthday was flawless. It was a real celebration of all the things that have changed this year. If 2009 was a year of strife, and 2010 the year of revolution, then I guess I'd summarize 2011 as a year of rebirth.

Day 340: In Need of Rest

So, very early in the project when I was having one of those panic attack days and had no idea what photo to take, I took one of myself napping. But I wasn't wild about how it turned out. So, tonight, not so much in a panic as just not happy with the other shots I had for the day, I tried again. Much better this time.

Day 338: Bauble

Put my tree up today. Have barely done anything else. Anxious about tomorrow.

Day 337: Blinding

Having a nice, relaxing New York Saturday. Well except for the misguided part where I went down to South Street Seaport hoping to find a star for my Christmas Tree. Still no luck.

Day 336: Rockefeller Plaza

Went to Rockefeller Plaza to brave the tourist crowds and get tree photos. Thanks to Sleep No More I can outmaneuver these crowds no sweat. Don't be surprised if I take pictures of Christmas lights for basically every day of December. They're kind of my favorite thing on earth.

Day 335: Ordnung

It's kind of hilarious that this of all things is the photo for today. Today was more emotional roller coaster than I generally care to ever have. Today was a really difficult swim. Today was Part II of the roachocaust and I executed probably 12 of the things while cleaning out... my Christmas Tree. Sigh. I have some nice new urban living neuroses now like inspecting anything I have in storage every month to make sure nothing has set up a home in the box.

Thank christ for Sleep No More 15, reservation for late Saturday night. I feel like I'm going to explode.

And holy crap, this is the start of the last month of the year. The last month of this amazing project. Agh. So much has happened, this has truly been the most intense and most remarkable year of my life so far, and on top of that I have the most detailed account of it. Deep breath.
