Off to LA again / Atlantic Antic / Celeb sightings

I often forget where I am.

Just now I was walking through JFK and I could have sworn I was at LAX heading home to New York.

Maybe I travel too much.

Maybe I'm sleepy.

Anyway I'm on my way back to LA for a big corporate gig tomorrow (I'm taking pics of 22 lawyers for their new website).

I'm so relieved to have a wonderful new apartment. Last week when I was in LA I was super-stressed about where I was going to end up living. Funny how things can change so quickly.

Last week, right before I flew back to NY we had a group outing to watch The Town (great movie).

When we arrived at the theater, Smileyjohn saw his clothing twin. It was SO funny. We HAD to take a picture...



THEN, Smileyjohn's clothing twin met up with his ladyfriend, who just happened to be Annie's clothing twin. It was unreal!



Maybe you had to be there. Whatever. It was awesome.



So I came back to NY. Found an apartment, lost an apartment, and within 24 hours found a new apartment, still on the Lower East Side.

I love my neighborhood.

I walked up the street the other day to find a throng of people gawking at something.



I shoved my way through the crowd to find myself face-to-face with Rihanna, filming her new video, I assume for "Only Girl in the World". She was just walking around with a pair of drumsticks drumming on walls and doorframes and stuff, soaking up the attention and screaming to everyone, "You're all gonna be in my video!!!!"



This was very exciting to me, since I had just seen her in concert a few months ago.

I was so close to her I could have punched her. But I waited until I was a bit farther away to take pictures.



Anyway, I was on my way to some street festival called Atlantic Antic in Brooklyn, meeting up with my buddies Christian and Sol who I haven't seen since Norway.



There was food and people and drinking everywhere.






And cake!




And fake princesses!



One highlight was a $5 slider from Morton's steakhouse...




$5 also buys you three giant meatballs from a rando Italian stand.




I bumped into my Brown buddy Todd who happened to be performing with his band "Arms".



And then we found delicious pineapple drinks!



Brooklyn, you're neat, but I'm so glad I live in Manhattan!



And now I'm at the aeropuerto about to take off for LA.

I'm actually sitting across from Robin Thicke, can you see his reflection in my sunglasses? Probably not. I'd take a picture but I'm trying to be cool and discreet even though we all know I'm anything but.



Anyway, see y'all on the flip side!
