Sunday News

Hey fam! I hope you had some good news come your way this weekend!

Headliner: I got a total day off this week. Not a single commitment. All day. I did laundry (well, I paid someone else to do it for me...they fold it better than I do!), went to the Chipped Cup (best coffee shop in Harlem, y'all) and spent some time going over some stuff for auditions, reading, and drinking some amazing green tea lemonade. The weather was incredible, so I had to spend some time outside and they have the sweetest little garden out back with a beautiful and elegant life-size ceramic goat. If you see that goat and you don't immediately feel at least 28% happier than you were pre-goat, go home. You don't deserve him.

Insider scoop: I finally gave myself a pedicure. You're welcome, world.

Outsider scoop: Some dear college friends are celebrating their one year wedding anniversary today! Congrats, Tom and Jess! I got a sweet little stack of pictures and a lovely note from them in the mail yesterday:

Extra, Extra! On September 8, 1910, 103 years ago today, The original Penn Station opened. According to NY1.com, The majestic structure was modeled after baths in ancient Rome. And now that Madison Square Garden's lease is up in 2023, hopes for a new Penn Station (which is now UNDER Madison Square Garden) are on the horizon. City Council speaker Christine C. Quinn said to the NY Times, "This is the first step in finding a new home for Madison Square Garden and building a new Penn Station that is as great as New York and suitable for the 21st century. This is an opportunity to reimagine and redevelop Penn Station as a world-class transportation destination."

Now, I know that may not be epically good news for all of you, but since some of my fam lives out in NJ and I travel to and from Penn often, this is GREAT news. May every space in NYC be as great as the people who occupy it.

Now don't forget, if you have any good news and want to spread the love, be sure you send me an email, facebook message, text, or tell me in person so I can put it up on the blog! We have got to spread some love, fam. We all need it!
