Emmalee has some fun in the back of Beth's car- clearly because Beth just skipped a good song ;)

Rachael and Beth at Rachael's new place.

Where we watched not Gilmore Girls

But Moulin Rouge, which I have to say I found extrordinarely twisted and didn't like.

Rachael and Joe, a really cool guy who also happens to be marrying Rachael next Summer.

Those Americans got books about everything.

Rachael wanted to pose this picture in which she is picking her teeth.

Chelsea eating Ice Cream

And talking on the phone like mad because she just got a new phone and is set for a world record in abusing the "Free call from Verizon to Verizon" thing.

Rachael, a real pictures this time.

Sunste on the way to MCC.


You can't REALLY tell but this is in fact my dear friend Margaret who is, for a change, doing actual work and is currently in progress of teaching art history at MCC.

Being cultured like that we took off to Regal cinema to watch Charlie and the Chocolate factory witzh Rebecca and a couple other people. The movie is amazing but this theatre had subtitles for the blind/deaf under it which I found increasingly distracting.

Baas with the Rocky Road Ice Cream at her house next to her father.

Baas the "music nazi"- whenever a good song comes on she swiches it off in order to listen to something i either don't know or like. And her attention span is about 20 seconds ;) Riding the car with her was always fun anyway.

Beth in her room next to Emmalee.

Nina-wha.

Who is clearly out to get me and the camera if youcan't tell.

Wink.

So the pool it was.

The obligatory waterwar entailed when mMarty got the hose out.

And the girls and I hid behind the air matress, waging revenge.


Revenge failed pretty miserably at first.




Marty, saliva, water.

Emmalee.



Egocentric behavior. Or rather collective egocentric behavior if that makes any sense.


Ok, there are many picture sof us coming up but I love them intensely.






There were three cameras.

And noses to pick.

Pregnancy, obviously.

Stryrofoam (no plates)

"Sex hair"


Next day: Another trip to beautiful California Rollin. I could go for some tofu pokets right now. Toobad I can't make them like I can make Kinky Reggae.

Unless I move to Japan. Or California.

I'll do graffiti if you sing to me in French.


Who wouldn't?

The community darkroom. Emmalee has two phones and is unwilling to share.

The best and mostbeautiful dress ever at the thrift store.

Gina, pracitically invisible from all the orangeness.

Wake up, I'm fat! Beth is clearly "Miss Unterstood" as well.

"This is for all the fat people"


Photosession of Kitty Meow and me.

She never holds still.


Margaret randomly gets home from clubbiing at Vertex in her latex outfit. I will let the pictures speak here.






"Scrambled eggs?"


Exotic incence smells for the needy.

At the Rochester public market.

Where I really should have ought sunglasses befor Paul broke mine a little later.


Summer purses? Winter purses? Kristin, Mary, Cecilia.

We met Risi.

Family time with the Bouwmeesters.


Kristin's brother has memorized "Signs" and hereby recreates the overall feel of it. He wan't just making fun of it, he WAS Mel Gibson/an alien. Something we all strive for.



"Shut up, Peter!"


Walking through the woods.

Where we find actual bones.

Which lead Kristin's brother to reenact "early man". Well done, Mike.

Mary and the love that is a new purse.

This was an actual advertisement at Eastview.

We went to the new Apple store like the nerds that we are.


Paul was with us, of course.

Kristin looks at things she wants to buy in the future.


My website/journal.


Paul looks at things he wants to walk out of the store with in the future.

TV scenes and movie screens.

Life sized iPods.



Two worlds collide. Or at least Pauls looks as if they do.

This is Victoria's secret btw. who else would have such secrets?)

This is at Kristin's friend Casey's house who had her birthday. Paul, Kristin and I used that opportunity to chill at the pool.



Paul

And the closeup of the reflection in the sunglasses that shows the highly nutricious food we had there.


No, there aren't my sunglasses.


Two photos to illustrate the slight difference of height.


More food that was photographed.. Yum grilled cheese.


I am eternally thankful for thse photos because i love the way they look.



This is at a terrifyingly early time in the morning at the Amico's house. And what you can see on the plate is my minimalist breakfast.

We were going to go fishing on Niagara river and were going to face our fears of going down the falls.


Beth, her massive sunglasses and I were going to break every fishing record that had ever been, this was for sure.

The guy in white is our fishing instructor who was tanned beyond anything I have ever seen, his skin resebled leather because all he ever did was fishing. As far as I recall his name was Chris and he hardly ever talked.

Beth immediately began pulling out fish by the minute.

Thereby winning the "Frist fish of the day" contest.

As the hours passed, Beth pulled out one fish after the other.

While it took me a good two hours to get my first bite. This is a sheephead and unfortunately you can't really eat it.

We weren't all that far from Buffalo, however.

Interestingly Beth' mother was dressed exactly like me.

Notice the hat difference, that makes it all easier for you.

After a couple of hours on the water, a tasty meal at a freezing store we were back in Rochester for some face action.

Rachael joined us.

So did Joe.
Ano now my friends, be cautioned because what is coming up is the result of the unpreceded ugliness contest. I warned you.




All of these photos generally make me laugh.







Jow was sporting some ugliness as well.



Swimming in the dark and the rain, this is after experienceing the fabulous whirpool effect of the pool.


Moreugly photos.


Marty.

Margaret.

Lamps at Cibon.

Where the girls and I met Derek Krause.
Who looked like John Lennon on a picture I had seen before but looked more like himself in actuality.



Kristin, Mary, Heidi.


Another one of Margaret's surprise trips, this time we went horsebakc riding, the idea based on some old thing that was once said when it really didn't fit.. but enough of that, here are the photos. What I am wearing is a helmet by the way.

Margaret after almost being killed by the panicing horse.

Kristin was nice enough to take me to Hollister soley for photo taking ourposes. Or so we thought. I think we both ended up buying sth.

Isimply wanted to point out that this is a cool store. And that I am ergo far from cool.





Oh the love that is David Beckham

Or Tom Cruise.


Marketplace Mall.

Emmalee on the last night I was there at Margaret's

Emmalee, Beth, Gina

Heidi, Mary

Michelle (!)


Laura! She is small but the picture below does a far better job at illustrating jist how small she is.


Marty.



Oh the love between us after all these years!



Attractivity. Is that a word?

Rachael.

Beth





Grapes. I guess that proves it all.


The looking at pictures, Wegman's Spring water.

Crackers.

Derek

Mary, Kristin

Stories of life, crime, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.


Whatever that may mean.



Plastic bottles? Just a prove of the stuff Margaret hides in her kitched and we aren't allowed to drink.




Glowing ice cubes. That are sometimes a little hard to turn on.


Heidi

Latex dresses.

At the airport on the day of my departure.

Emmalee had hands down the best hair I have ever seen.


I do remember what you said in the car so don't pretend you're sad ;)


Goodbye Rochester, once more we have to part.

Goodbye America

Washington DC airport.
