YAT week 12

Wednesday, August 1st, 2007

YAT – The Year of Awesome Things, in which I attempt to do at least one awesome thing every week.Â
Ok, so I didn’t do week 11 – I think it was covered with all my summerstage ranting, though.
Week 12 was busy – too busy for any monumentally excitingly awesome thing – but there were [...]

My Year of Awesome Things project, in which I endeavor to do something awesome every week.
Free Pornographers! On the Fourth of July I got to see the New Pornographers in Battery Park. For FREE! Glennis had scooped up a couple of tickets to the free show and we went with Liz Black & one of [...]

YAT – weeks 5-6

Tuesday, June 19th, 2007

Oops.
Yeah, so…I missed last week’s update. Only a month in and already flaking – doesn’t bode well. But really the week was a bust. My totally awesome plans kept falling through – it was a jinxed week. But the next one, week 6 was pretty great.
1) 48 Hour Film Project – I made my first [...]

YAT – week four

Tuesday, June 5th, 2007

YAT – the Year of Awesome Things, in which I do something totally awesome every week.

Impromptu Karaoke Party [...]

YAT – week three

Tuesday, May 29th, 2007

This year I have challenged myself to do something totally awesome every week – it’s called a Year of Awesome Things. It’s not always that impressive, but at least I’m sticking with it. Give me some credit for that, ok? OK??
I learned to skydive and made out with a bunch of fleet week sailors.
If only! [...]

YAT – week two

Tuesday, May 22nd, 2007

I’m going with Pat Baer’s pick – Year of Awesome Things. A close second was steph’s “A TITTY”, which is hilarious, but I am too stupid to remember what it actually stands for. Thanks for the suggestions you commented and emailed me.
This week my big plan was to head down to Richmond to see the [...]

Best Year Ever – week one

Tuesday, May 15th, 2007

Okay, first of all I have to think of a new name for this project, since I just realized that the acronym ends up being BYE. Which seems to indicate that the last “Awesome Thing” I will do at the end of the year is carve Depeche Mode lyrics into my chest and hang myself [...]
