My week with Ban.do, walking across the Brooklyn Bridge, an East River Ferry ride & a road trip to Philly for a very special wedding.
Still thinking about Toms Sachs and his 10 Bullets since I went to the Space Program: Mars earlier this summer. I have been trying to live at least half of these bullet points everyday (especially be on time, work to code, and keep a list). It’s helping me to form good habits for doing good work.
I haven’t missed a single Creative Mornings since the day I moved to New York. Each one has brought me inspiration, a kick in the pants and free breakfast. When they decided to kickstart their online archive, I was more than happy to give a few bucks to the cause. If you have ever been to a CM event, watched one of their many videos (including F*** You, Pay Me, a personal favorite) or attempted to run a 33 city series of free monthly events I ask you to considering giving them a little support over at their Kickstarter.

Day one in Cannes was a success: pain au chocolat, beach, baguette & cheese, walking the boardwalk / riding carousels, gnocchi & rosé. Below are a few photos from our first day. Above is the World Trade Center from JFK before takeoff.
How is it Friday already?! Sometimes the weeks fly by so quickly I lose track of the days. Here’s some snaps from my week.

Happy happy Friday! I’m looking forward to a little (big) CrossFit competition, lunch with this cool lady, and dinner and cake with new friends. Maybe I’ll even relax a little?
For Halloween, Studiomate Jessi Arrington had the brilliant idea for us all to dress as Muppets. We set up a little photobooth during our party and this is what happened…
