Here they are! All the pics I took in September of 2007 that didn't end up in their own entry!
Saturday, September 1st
Here's where we left off! Meredith in a cab smiling about picking up our two pet rats that Mandy was nice enough to look after for us while we took a month-long trip to the United Arab Emirates and then Thailand!
We spent Saturday afternoon getting settled back into our apartment. Meredith was jet-lagged and called it a night... tags:meredithratstaxi
...but I hit the streets a little after midnight! First stop: The Annex to catch up with this little smidge! tags:mesarahannex
Brother Lawrence was there playing tunes. BTW, what's he doing in this photo? Writing in his Emo Diary? Signing autographs? Getting mad digits? Careful ladies, Lawrence is like a male-version of the character portrayed in Hall & Oates' incredible funk-synth-ballad, Maneater. tags:brother lawrencedj
Afterwards, Sarah and I went to MisShapes to meet up with this little niblet! tags:leighmemisshapestongue
Grant! I know you still read this site! What do you think - is that guy with the braids in the yellow shirt THE smelly braids guy that almost handed you a beat down after he almost caught you SNIFFING HIS HAIR waaaay back in the day???. EPIC LOL.
Ha ha! Everyone at MisShapes has pointy lil' black shoes! tags:misshapesshoes
Early morning cab eastward with these two (Nice "drink for the road" you got yerself there, Tinz!)... tags:leighscott mtaxi
...and this one! So glad to be back in NYC! tags:sarahtaxi
Sunday, September 2nd
On Sunday I went out to my Aunt & Uncle's house in NJ to see my Aunt Sue and my Uncle Nalin (pictured here with Gma & Gpa) who were up from North Carolina! tags:aunt suegrandmagrandpauncle nalin
Monday, September 3rd
On Monday night I came home to discover that Meredith baked me a belated birthday cake (to make up for the fact that my official birthday cake got eaten by ANTS and I only got to taste a teeny tiny bit of it!). Thanks, Weenis! tags:birthdaycake
Sunday, September 9th
On Sunday Fatty came over for a hang. And to cuddle Hector like he's a little hairy fox-baby (Which he is). tags:fattyhector239 e 7thdogs
Tuesday, September 11th
On Tuesday night, Meredith and I were coming home from dinner in Nolita and we passed David's apartment. We called for Lord Alred and he ran to the window to greet us. A couple of minutes later... tags:lord alfredmeredithdogswindow
...his owner came out to greet us! And to show us the awesome motorcyle he'd recently purchased. tags:david kreitmanmotorcycle
Take a good hard look, Ladies. Not only does he have a sexy beard and awesome motorcyle, he will also make you female-ejaculate like a goddamn fire hose! tags:david kreitmanmotorcycle
We came home and Hector was angry with us for having caught him pretending he's being delivered by a stork. tags:hectorbeddogs
The anger quickly disappeared and was replaced by shame and embarrassment. So busted. tags:hectorbedbestdogssleepy
Friday, September 14th
On Friday afternoon, we had our monthly party where you celebrate eveyone who had a birthday and who had an anniversary in the past month. There's always a full-spread of food too! tags:karlshawn smithcci
Co-workers enjoying food and getting ready to watch... tags:ralphcci
...some HOT PIÑATA action! I don't really remember why we had piñatas that day, but it was awesome. Here's Karl getting all blindfolded up! tags:ebbykarlccipinata
After being spun around ten times, here's Karl trying to get his bearings to start swinging! tags:ebbykarlccipinata
Boo-yah! I totally captured the exact second it exploded! If there were porn movies about piñatas, this would be like the most famous money-shot of all time. tags:ebbykarlccipinata
Yeah, that's right. Clean that mess up, bitch. tags:candypinata
My co-worker Ralph is handsome and looks like he could be the cousin of Bret from Flight of the Conchords. He even has a beard that is good. tags:ralphteeth
Wait, what's this? Another piñata? I can't believe that I forgot that this was a two-piñata party! Incredible! Here's Ian wildly swinging and whiffing big time! tags:ianccipinata
Saturday, September 15th
Animal FunTime Party House got even better when Leigh came by and dropped off Edie off with us! Look how excited Meredith is to have two little lap-weasels! tags:ediehectormeredithbestdogspretty
The rats came out to see what all the commotion was about! tags:ratsoroxycagerats
Ratso was getting jealous about us fawning over two dogs so I had to take her over to the couch for a solo pet-down! She liked to rest her chin on your hand while your scratched her back! Rats really are like the world's tiniest dogs. It's a shame that they have such a bad rap - if more people got to see how good they are with people, maybe they wouldn't find them so creepy. (PS - Look, I'm wearing my glasses! I never wear them because my optometrist thought she was doing me a favor by polarizing my glasses for me for free! On the upside, it helps protect my photosensitive eyes from UV rays when I wear them in and/or near sunlight. On the downside, it makes me look like Larry David.) tags:me

Monday Night at 2am = KARAOKE KILLED THE CAT. Here's Chris and Lord Easy kicking it. tags:goldteethlord easykaraoke
They're weren't too many people there on this particular night, but every single person that was there totally gave crazy, over the top performances. tags:karaokeprettystrangers
This guy! (Btw, what in the world is he even singing into? Did he bring a homemade Burryberry-fabric cozy for the mic? Did that actually happen?) tags:karaokestrangersyell
The guy started out doing a sexy duet with the blond lady, but about halfway through the song, it turned into... tags:karaokestrangers
...a sexy solo serenade to a stranger in the crowd. E-P-I-C. tags:karaokestrangers
Tuesday, September 18th
On Tuesday night I went to Greenwich Village to see Em & Lo knocked up at the same time! Check out the dual-preggo action! These two do everything together. So awesome! With proud fathers-to-be Rob and Joey, respectively. Congrats, you guys! tags:emmajoeyloreleirob tourtelotpreggo
Team #2: Amanda's friend whose name I forgot (sorry!), Amanda and LionMane (keeping things real in his Beetlejuice pants!). Oh, and Ellen also joined this team but I don't think she'd shown up yet! tags:amandadavid lionmanecranium
Team #3: Me, and the newly-engaged Matt & Amy! tags:amy amatt jme
Oh, and Edie was there and rocking the school bus outfit that Meredith hand-made for her for halloween. Hahaha. Who's a cute little WienerBus? tags:ediebuscutedogsdressed up
The tension in the room was unbelievable. (PS - If, perchance, you ever find yourself anywhere in the vicinity of Fatty, and you also, perchance, decide to take out your camera and take a picture and Fatty is not in the frame, there's is a 100% chance that he will lean into the frame at the last second and make an awesome face.) tags:fattykarencranium
Lions and Weasels can be friends! Sexy friends. Right after I took this picture, I was suddenly struck by overwhelming nostalgia for my teen years in the late 80s. At first I couldn't, for the life of me, figure out what had triggered my sudden nostalgia. tags:david lionmaneedie
...Kip Winger! Hahahahahaha. Holy fucking shit. If we got David some AquaNet and teased his shit out a bit, you probably would think that these were photographs of the same guy! The same guy showing off just a couple of shirts from his extensive "skimpy shirts" collection. (PS - if you say "skimpy shirts" out loud repeatedly, you will eventually say "shrimpy skirts" by accident.) tags:david lionmanekip wingerdoppleganger
Sunday, September 23rd
On Sunday afternoon, Meredith and I met up with her parents in the West Village to see The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters. This movie is amazing. If you haven't seen it, see it soon. There is no way you will not love it. tags:movieposter
Afterwards we partied on the WienerBus express! tags:ediemeredithbus
Wednesday, September 26th
On Wednesday night I went out to meet up with Sarah who was in town visiting from San Diego! tags:mesarah dolgen
Siege presents a near-empty apartment! Woooo! tags:siegemoving
Siege and I drove over to their new apartment in the moving truck. When we arrived, we found a whole bunch of new people who had showed up to help unpack! tags:amandafattygrantmarissameredithgaragemoving
...into a truck-sized door! We backed the truck up into the garage. And the garage opens up into... tags:garagemovingtruck
...one of the coolest NYC apartments I've ever been in. First you walk into this huge room that has a loft over the door and the far wall is made of glass and opens into...
...a private outdoor garden with a single tree! The glass blocks that you see behind the tree make up the wall of another room in the apartment that looks out onto the garden.
You walk down a long hallway to the right of the garden and you come into another huge room.
That also has another room upstairs...
...and a door out to a private rooftop garden! WTF!
Meredith's face pretty much sums up our collective reaction. tags:meredithstairs
Cat and Grant marveling over the awesome red-tiled bathroom complete with a shower that has a meat-freezer-doorway shower curtain! tags:catrinelgrantshower
Back in the room that goes out into the garage, the gang was busy discovering all kinds of hidden features. tags:fattymurphy bed
Like a secret Murphy that folds down! Are you kidding me? tags:katiemurphy bed
And a wetbar in a closet next to the bed. Siege, who are you renting this place from, Austin Powers? tags:meredithsinksink
After discovering the hide-a-way bed, Marissa (who is like the Marco Polo of new apartments) disappeared around a corner into a nook no one had explored yet! After she didn't re-emerge after a couple of seconds, I started wondering if she'd found a secret room or something! I rounded the corner to chase after her and almost ran right into her! tags:marissa
Sitting on a toilet! The new "room" around the corner turned out to be a door-less bathroom! Hahahaha. (PS - Marissa, you look really pretty on the toilet!) tags:marissapee
After we were finished exploring, it was time to unload the truck. Here's happy Katie! tags:katie
Here's the same room about 45 minutes later! Chock full O' stuff! tags:moving
Sunday, September 30th
The month ended with another explosive discovery: Meredith's secret recipe for PINEAPPLE CASSEROLE! Happy, September! tags:recipe
