Day 298 kicks alot

As I mentioned a couple weeks back, I joined a kickball team. As promised, here's a photo of our team, Sir Kick Alot, in action. Nevermind the fact that we lost big time. Because it's fun!

Day 284 is sticking around

Remember this? It's literally still happening. At this point it's just fascinating and fantastic. Fascinatingly fantastic if you will. It's location has moved ever so slightly in the past few days. But thinking about allllll the people who must walk by it each day, it's still there?? Really?? Kinda cool.

Day 278 is lost and not yet found

This book has been on the ground for 3 days now. I finally decided to take a picture of this poor forgotten thing. I'm kind of hoping the owner walks by it by chance in a week and finds their book. But I hope no one pees on it or something in the meantime. Those thoughts have kept me from touching or moving the book. My roomie and I have been texting each other every day that it's still there. A simple "Snow Crash!" and I know the book hasn't moved. I guess that is kind of weird...

Day 26 is lost no more

I got a bit lost on my way into the city this evening. Google maps was all "go this way" and I was all "okay, fine", but you know what - google maps lied. rude! Unless they really wanted me to walk directly across a 6 lane highway, which I didn't really feel like doing. And this is where I have to give some love to nyc for taking my busted up navigation skills and making them top freaking notch. I was lost for about 35 seconds, then I saw a few street names, oriented myself, observed the gridded street situation and was on my way (in the right direction). It was a proud moment. Only took 5 months for me to figure out how to get around Seattle!

Gettin' Lost on Day 5

in today's episode of the chronicles of aislinn, i managed the incredible feat of getting lost while trying to find a fedex that turned out to be 2 blocks from where i started my search.  Oh, cruel cruel world. I know this now because after giving up trying to find this stupidly-close fedex i went home, frustrated and upset, and then decided to google map it. Poor planning and over confidence caused this blunder. This is a pic from my epic fail tonight (while safely stuck at a red light waiting for a train to pass.... yes a train).

The lesson here... the best time to Google map where you're going is before you're wandering around in the dark, lost.
