Subject: Sorry everyone

I'm leaving the bank now.

I'm not made to do this.

If I put my mind to something as much as I do hereto mindless text editing, copy and pasting, and getting yelled at for stuff
other people can't/won't/don't do, I would be much better off.

It's 6:43 a.m. on a Sunday, and I have at least 14 more hours of work to do today that will not be fulfilling, useful, appreciated, recognized, or paidfor.

Sorry this is last minute, but it's just not worth doing more
My blackberry is on my desk
Apparently that failed staffing request was fatal (no, not as in I'm going tokill myself, hehe,

I'm just going to go enjoy life). There is no happiness here. I took all my personal stuff. No one needs to contact me for anything (except for a drink for those of you with my personal number).

I will only be at my New York address a few days longer.

Good luck y'all,

P.S. I'll be waiting for some smart-@$$ associate to send a "best-practicee-mail for how to quit properly".
Thank you Nabeel, Bernotas, and Barnes foryour previous e-mails. I will be sure to keep your tips in mind.

The Harrison

It has to be one of my favorite restaurants in Tribeca. If you're ever in my hood, come on down to this solid performer.

Went there tonight and had some duck breast(sisis). Relativity Cabernet Sauvignon 2001 was the wine of choice. Awesome.

The Hills...update!

Another jam-packed episode of The Hills (the best show right now).

Whoa, that was crazy. Jason drops the bomb that he not only has a girlfriend (Katja) but is about to move in with her. LC gave the "WHAT??" look. Did you ever notice she raises her voice to some annoying level when she is not being sincere?

Too bad. She's like the tough-luck chick.

Red Jumpsuit Apparatus? Is Justin-bobby in this band? They are really annoying people. This has to go onto my new music blog:

Heidi goes wedding dress shopping with annoying person #1 - Jen. She drives me nuts.

Anyone been at The Dime in West Hollywood?
LA answer: "Oh yea, been there. Live around the corner from there. Last time I was there, I ran into (fill in celebrity name). My friend reps him/her from (CAA/Gersh/WMA)."

Spencer Moment: not into being engaged while at Crate.

Biggest Moment: Jason gets engaged, after 6 months dating. Hope that is not alcohol in your red cup, buddy!

Saigon Grill

This is an institution. They have one way up around the 90s and Amsterdam, but we visited the one in Union Square tonight. It is a solid performer. Thai Iced Tea pretty good as well.



Bun Xao, Baby!!

Tom and Jerry's and Eugene

Do you have a lot of friends who are into sports? I guess Sam is a big sports guy. He said, "I know, it's weird. I'm small and skinny and you wouldn't expect it from me..." funny dude. We had a good conversation about Fantasy Football.




We met up with Eugene before sending him off to more training at a place in NoHo called Tom and Jerry's. It's sad, really, that he is just in training and I have already worked 3 months. Wish I had more of a summer!



D, J, and friend from Indonesia came through too. Shout out to Bali!


Shout out to Pak for some advice on Fashion. Eugene - keep in touch bro.

Alvin's new pad

We also took a drive by Alvin's new apt in Williamsburg, right across the street from McCarren Pool and Park. We're hoping he gets to move in soon. Here are some shots of the brand new construction 1 BR.

Tacos...again!

Yes, we went back to brooklyn/red hook for more tacos, huraches, ceviche, mangos with red pepper, and even some corn! Delicious. NO LINE FOR TACOS! I realized that everyone gets in line for huraches and quesadillas, but not for tacos. But it's counterproductive since there is only one grill. I also was impressed with the non-Mexicans in line ordering in Spanish. (no, not just saying the food item). Made me wonder why I don't know Spanish. oh yea, it's because I took Latin in high school. Thanks for nada!
