Saturday was another one of me and Podz’ “neighborhood days” where we pick a ‘hood and just walk around, checking out all of its unique spots.

Carlen’s week in New York was coming to an end, but I got in one more meal with her before she left town. This was one brunch I wasn’t going to miss. Carlen’s boyfriend had joined her for the last three nights and I had to give my stamp of approval. After he picked a…

In addition to getting Memorial Day off work, I also had the Friday before as a free day, so I decided to get all my errands done before leaving Saturday morning for Heather and Jason’s wedding (more on that later). Of course it wasn’t all boring errands (it never is with me) – I had…
