Sandman, and a Celeb Sighting!

Setting: Union Square (again).  Weekend.  Mid afternoon.

Lida walks through Union Square.  She sees a crowd of people gathered together, murmuring to themselves, and pointing to something on the ground in front of them.  She dramatically bursts through the crowd, and sees this:

Some street artist was making a sand mural on the ground.  I thought it was really pretty, so I took a picture of the final product, too.

Then, as I was standing in line to use the BofA ATMs, I noticed there was a celebrity standing right in front of me.  That's right, people, CHARLIE (KELLY) DAY, OF IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA, WAS STANDING IN FRONT OF ME IN THE ATM LINE.  I almost died on the spot.  Best moment of my life.

He looked like this, except slightly more homeless.  

He is also roughly my height, meaning he's about 5' 7".

SO EXCITING.  Y'all are jealous.

Olde Good Things

BECAUSE OF THE BEAUTIFUL WEATHER, my friend Katya and I decided to stroll through Union Square yesterday.  There was nothing eventful going on, until I turned the corner and saw this facing me:

That is a giant wooden lion.  Sitting on the back of a truck.

Then I saw that the truck was filled with the COOLEST JUNK IMAGINABLE.  From this picture alone, I see a lion statue, a carousel horse, a pink elephant (which is very clearly a Heffalump, meaning all those childhood Winnie the Pooh nightmares flooded my mind and I had a mild panic attack), a church pew, a red kangaroo (??), a green light fixture, and some tin tiles.

So, obviously, I stalked the website.  Olde Good Things literally has everything.  You want a "George III carved sideboard?"  Well, boom: they have it.  You want a "Pair of Lifesize Dolphin Fountain Statues?"  Get at me, son.  You want Cogsworth and Lumiere?  OF COURSE THEY HAVE IT, SILLY!

My personal favorite is the "Americana Bench from an Amusement Park."  It's what I imagine would be in the amusement park horror movie of my dreams.

Of course, to shop at Olde Good Things, you need to be willing to drop some big cash to actually walk away with said Dolphin Fountain Statues.  By big cash I mean almost $10,000.

But hey, who knows.  Maybe eventually I'll be sitting on a clown bench, keeping time with my favorite Beauty and the Beast characters, eating my dinner off of a table named George III.  Dream big.

Whoops

Hello.

Please welcome us back.

To be honest, it's been MAD cold in the City lately, and the last thing we've wanted to do was go out and explore.  Hence the lack of new posts.

BUT SPRING IS HERE, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.  And that means Strug is back in action.

Recent updates:
- We joined a sorority.
- Chelsea is dancing a lot.
- Lida is in a show.
- Mostly we joined a sorority.

Anyway, sorry for the delay.

Mucho love,
Chelsea and Lida
