Yup, here they are: all the pics I took in June that didn't end up in an entry of their own.
Sunday, June 4th
I have no idea why I was up at 7:12am on a Sunday - but that's what the time-stamp on this photo says. Anyway, here's a sad, sad photo of a dead dove. Awww. tags:bird

Friday, June 9th
Awww, yeah. This is the computer where all the I Keep a Diary magic happens! (Er, or at least this is what the set-up looked like back in June of 2006!). I was hard at work updating the site when Meredith convinced me to stop being a nerd and head up to Times Square (on a Friday night? Crazytown!) to go to... tags:computer
...an indoor pool-party at the Hotel QT! (It's this really cute hotel that has a smallish indoor pool that's IN THE LOBBY and it even has a swim-up bar!). Here's Meredith making sexy-face in the water! tags:meredith

Meredith's best friend Una (who I only ever see like once a year) even came out! tags:una

And here's me. I'm guessing that you can tell by our faces that the water in the pool wasn't exactly warm. I'd brought along my new waterproof camera (that Meredith got me as a gift for when I go scuba diving) and it allowed me go... tags:me

Hahaha. The girls left me alone in the steam room and headed over to the sauna and when I caught up with them a few minutes later... tags:meredith

Even the showers at the hotel are super-cool; they're all activated by pulling on wood handles hanging from chains! tags:meredith

Fast forward two weeks later, and Grant and I went out for some lunch with Chris the Greek and Caesar, who were in town from Washington, DC and Italy respectively. tags:caesar

Later that night I stopped by Lorelei on my way out to wish J. Crowley a happy birthday (he and Jackie have since gotten hitched!) tags:jackie

After bidding J. a happy birthday, I headed crosstown over to MisShapes to meet up with my friend Michelle who was in town visiting from LA. tags:michelle z
Michelle and I went to high school together and hadn't seen each other since we graduated in 1994! tags:me

What's up, TWELVE YEARS LATER! Jeez! (PS - If you look in the background behind Michelle, you can see Don Hill! Dude's gotta be in his late 50s (at least!) and he's still at his own club every night until closing!) tags:don hill

I met my friend Jack Dolgen through his older sister Sarah. Jack plays bass in a band called Sam Champion and asked me if I'd shoot press photos for them! I was happy to oblige so on Sunday morning I headed out DUMBO to meet the band at their practice space! tags:instruments
sam champion
Sean, Jack, Ryan and Noah. I started out snapping a bunch of pics of the boys in front of a pile of their instruments. tags:jack dolgen

We did a whole bunch of dark, and gloomy shots like these indoors, and then decided to head outdoors... tags:jack dolgen

...to do some exploring around DUMBO. Here's the guys standing in front of some gated mansion that I think might actually have been the NYC governor's mansion way, way back in the day. tags:jack dolgen

Wednesday, June 28th
On Wednesday night I hung out with the Grizz. tags:grant
And then I stayed at home and watched Saturday Night Fever, you know, so I could work on my moooooves. (Actually, now that I look at this pic I can't decide if it's really Saturday Night Fever or if it's the scene in Top Secret (aka - The best movie of all time) where they parody the main dance scene in Saturday Night Fever). Well, either way, I was working on my moves. tags:movie
Thursday, June 29th
On Thursday night, Meredith bundled up at my place and made it clear she wasn't in the mood to go out. I tucked her around 2:30am... tags:meredith

Even Grant was there (suckling Josh's teat, no less)! This might not seem like a big deal to you, but that's because you don't know that Grant HATES going out to sweaty, smoky clubs late at night. In fact, the only time "Party Grant" ever makes an appearance is when there's a specific piece of ass he's trying to woo. tags:grant

In this case, the biscuit in question belonged the very lovely Lizzie! tags:josh

Lizzie had just packed up all her stuff and moved from Hawaii. She was in NYC for a few weeks visiting before heading down to South Carolina to live with her boyfriend. tags:lizzie k
Here's "Party Grant" making his way across the dance floor like a boner-guided missle! (PS - The last recorded appearance of "Party Grant" was at Lotus in December of 2002!) tags:grant

If you're a fan of The Office (UK version) you might think that Grant's pulling a David Brent. But what he's actually doing is pointing at the reason why still he's out "in da club" dancing at 3am. Hahaha. tags:grant
