brb outside : labor day bbq
2Pz friend kathleen invited joel and i over to her home in bay ridge yesterday to hang out with her delightful family, eat some delicious bbq, and enjoy their beautiful backyard. we had lots of fun, of course.i just wanted to introduce everyone to her awesome kids (and i don't even like kids, so that's saying something). huck and connor were a delight. you might ask....kylie, what did those children do to win you over? well, i'll tell you.
here they are laughing mercilessly at joel for not having any friends until high school. how humiliating!
and look at the way connor eats his hot dogs!!!
what's for lunch? chicken burger, chips, pickles, and a delicious pasta salad featuring homegrown tomatoes!
huck said he was planning on being a wide reciever for the ohio state suckeyes, for the sole reason of 'they spend more money than any other program'. joel and i informed him about the vols and how rich they are. i don't think he was convinced, but joel showed him some of his peyton manning moves anyway.
did you see what happened at the US open last night?
Mimicking the mannerisms and serving style of McEnroe, Djokovic paced the baseline and hurled the ball high into the air before hitting it hard into the net. In mock disgust, he threw his racket to the ground, pointed at the line and screamed at an imaginary umpire, "It was wide!" before the obligatory "You cannot be serious" rant had 10,000 spectators in Arthur Ashe Stadium roaring with laughter.
Urged by Djokovic to come and join him, McEnroe sportingly left his position in the commentary box, came down onto the court and took up the gauntlet of playing a couple of points. (via)

the 50 states project
"Each photographer lives in one of the 50 States and during the year long project each photographer will represent the State where they currently live. Every two months each photographer will be sent an assignment by e-mail, they then have two months to produce one image in response. The images must represent both their style and their State.

NYT on ikea font change / mistake
They should have first taken everything out of the carton and made sure nothing was missing and that they weren’t mixing up, say, a Bjursta with a Leksvik or a Muddus. Then they should have taken a look to see how it all would fit together (serifs, strokes and counters), and only then should they have taken the many parts (stems, extenders, legs, spurs and chins) and started to jostle them into place, making sure they had enough help for heavy lifting when anything resembling pressed board was involved.
Instead they violated their aesthetic and their method: they went cheap (O.K., that’s part of Ikea’s appeal) but they also went pre-fab, ready-made. They even jettisoned their own distinctive, Swedish-owned design for something generic, multinational and bland. What good is designing furniture with coy names few outside your country can properly pronounce if you print a catalog describing those items using a font designed by Microsoft?

sure, everyone loves the hudson river. and yeah, new york is currently celebrating the 400th anniversary of henry hudson's first voyage up the mighty estuary. but did you ever think about how native americans feel about her?well, there's an exhibition at wave hill in the bronx examining the relationships of various indiginous peoples' relationships with the hudson.
nytimes review
kim clijsters is ridiculous.
she just won her quarterfinal match against 18-seed li na (6-2, 6-4).in case y'all don't know, clijsters retired 2 years ago to pop out a baby. she was invited to play an exhibition match at wimbledon a few weeks ago, so she got back in shape. she entered the US open as an unranked wild card, and has proceeded to kill everyone she's played so far.
roger federer said playing tennis is just like riding a bike, so i guess what she's doing isn't that hard...
she's got defending champ serena williams next.
what is princess doing?
modeling her new dress.i won't apologize for the blog being animal-heavy today. i just won't.
