summer thing 11: my fake husband

i visited my fake husband at work yesterday. it was really nice to see him in his element.

in unrelated news, what is UP with all the rain but the general lack of nasty humidity in nyc these days? i am loving it. today i celebrated the lack of nasty by spending a few hours at the boat pond in central park. it was relaxing and, well, more relaxing. also, there was a guy there who made it his business to belch as loudly as possible every 10 or so minutes. to be honest, i was both grossed out and impressed by the distance the belches traveled. i guess if you're gonna do it, go big.

speaking of going big, it's after 1am and i'm still awake because i just watched the 2+ hour coverage of the women's all around gymnastics competition. did anyone else find the balance beam scores particularly shady? i know my nbc counterparts elfie schlegel and tim daggett shared my suspicions, which made me like them a bit more and return to the question "who names their child 'elfie?'" thoughts, anyone?
