What I Learned at the Medieval Fest

Gentle readers,

So yesterday I went to the Medieval Fest up at Fort Tryon park (NATCH). It was super humid and muddy/soggy and mostly like this weird gauntlet of turkey legs and fried dough and goth teenagers. We were kind of watching the joust, and then I was all "methinks I need a cup of mead" (probably on account of being like hilariously hung over from tiki bar, whatever, I'm all about THEMES) but what I always always forget is that mead is totally sickenating. I chose the "dry traditional" based on my memory of some past mead (drunk with some wenches at the Renaissance Faire circa 2003) which was too sweet and so gross, but "dry traditional" tasted like elf pee or something. So, don't drink mead! But maybe we should, because um, the Long Island Meadery's bottle of "sweet traditional" features this label:

Stuff I Might Go To

ROOMS 4 RENT

Gentle Readers,

A friend of mine has 2 rooms opening up in his Sunset Park apartment, right off the 9th Ave D train (also close to the M and R trains). He's looking for queer/trans (or queer or trans-friendly), clean, non-meat-cooking roommates who wouldn't mind having an adorable tiny dog around some of the time. Rent is $633/month and the rooms are available 10/15 and 11/1.

If you are interested or know anyone please email us (humangoldcorp@gmail.com) and we'll put you in touch.

xoxo

sleuthing

I saw something interesting on Google Maps today re: the G train:

Please note the Fort Hamilton Parkway stop. I've been hearing about some extended G service a little bit, but it's kind of awesome to see it right there on (my beloved) Google Maps. I did some sleuthing (as my boss calls it) and found this on the G train Wikipedia page:

The MTA has announced a three-year rehabilitation of the Culver Viaduct from 2009–2012. As part of that project, the G service, which currently terminates at Smith–Ninth Streets, will be permanently extended to Church Avenue.

How useful it actually winds up being will probably depend on whether or not I still live in the same neighborhood and whether or not I still have a friend or two down in Flatbush or by the park. Anyway. Happy Friday.

I found these on Facebook today:














They are totally amazing. Also I did that thing where you have Facebook look through your (email) address book to find friends and apparently MY MOM IS ON FACEBOOK.
