Diet Cokes were on the house! We got manicures during lunch in preperation for the night.

More pictures from the holiday party

Here is a pic from the Daymon Holiday party. Check out all my wacky coworkers all dolled up.

Here is my former Coworker Michael from the West London Cancer Network with his girlfriend in NY! He brought me a box of Earl Grey from London as requested and I showed them my roof for a photo op. It was good to see you two during your stay in NY!

And then came Mr. Potato Head all decked out and athletic.

I could hear screams down the block. and it was super Grover!

So I went to the parade for a couple of minutes. Though it was rainy and cold out, walking a few blocks west was the least I could do. Just in time for Pikachu!

So I took a week off from studying and had a practice exam today. I increased 100 points (which is really really good)!

This is what I am paying a premium price for! My exam is next Friday and I hope to study just a little and get the same score at least.

Happy Halloween! I can't go out tonight because I have my class, but it is winding down so I can have a life again.

The power went out at work today at 10:30 so they let us out early. I can actually watch Dr. Phil and Oprah for once! But then it's off to class for me.

Happy Columbus Day all! NY is quite in the spirit!

Is the tea good?

And here is the empire state building lit up for 9/11. Go to this link for a funny Onion story on 9/11 and how they haven't done jack to rebuild the site yet. http://www.theonion.com/content/node/52325

Looks like I'm staying in my present apartment for 3 more months. My roommate lowered the rent because she liked me so much so now I will finally be able to save some dough. Here is a picture taken from my roof. You can slightly make out the double spotlights lit at ground zero. what a view. Also, Credit Suisse is lit up red white and blue

So I think I am going to take the plunge and move out of my apartment. My 6 month lease is up at the end of September and I am looking for a cheaper place so I can start to save some money. I am targeting the upper east side where many of my friends live.

It's sad, but I think I'll be happier if I can afford to go out and whatnot. will keep you posted.

"Where can you go ‘round and ‘round while still in a Square? Why, ask Geoffrey and friends (if they “R” available). Take a pic in front of it."

"Team members must act out a broadway play in front of its theater."

"Take a pic of the whackiest private label item your team can find." Nothing like chinatown for that task.

This task was to have teams posing in front of the replica of the Arc de Triumphe in Washington Sq Park. My boss is giving me bunny ears. sucker.

One task was to visit the oldest pub in NYC, McSorley's. I think all 3 teams got a point for this one.
