"Sleepover Friday at the Am. Museum of Natural History  If you're between 8 and 12 years old (or you've got one you can chaperone,) you can spend the night in the American Museum of Natural History this Friday as a few spots have opened up for its sleepover.
The price is $109 per person, which includes a cot, a late-night snack and breakfast, admission to the IMAX film, fossil exploration by flashlight and a live-animal special exhibition.
There are a few other sleepover dates scheduled through spring, but currently all dates are sold out except for March 14."
Anyone know any kids we could chaperone? Kelly, want to pretend you're twelve?

I have a bruise on my hand from clapping too hard.

Meeting your comedy idol on the street is both exciting and depressing.
Exciting, in my case, because the confrontation that went on in my mind was infinitely better than the weird stare and lack of speech I pulled off in real life.

So I've been experimenting with this Tony Little Gazelle. Yeah, that's right. A Gazelle. I've had it for like two weeks now, but subcontiously didn't tell anyone because for some reason I thought it would be this hilarious reveal once they all found out. Good going, brain. Pretty much everyone I know ever came to my house last weekend and saw Tony Little in person (I've named him after his father) and their reactions didn't really scratch the surface of what I had hoped for. Oh well. I do think it's funny that my instincts are taking over when it comes to telling my friends about my stuff that I have. And that after I get done working out with Tony Little for 1.2 hours, the only things I feel I've been exercising are my hips. Whatever. I'm sure it will prove it's worth eventually, despite the fact that I got it for free.
So you know how sometimes you find yourself sitting up at like three in the morning watching some show about medical oddities on Discovery: Health, and there's some dude who's got something really wrong and you wonder what you would do if you were in his situation? Well, I had that same thing happen to me the other night, except this time, it wasn't on the television, and it was something actually happening to me. That's right. Guys, I've got a mosquito bite on my Linus.
I've always been sure that it was possible for something like this to happen, and at the same time, I've known that if it happened to me, I wouldn't know what to do. Now, I find myself in the eye of the storm, and I don't think that these walls are hurricane-proof. I guess I now know what the Tree-Man must feel like. Well, not really. But, you know. I'm sure we could establish some kind of bond if I had a translator that spoke Thai. Maybe I should just stick with The Man Whose Arms Exploded. He's from Miami or something.

I'm really tempted to go see this: (via Gothamist)
"EVENT: Paula Abdul's Straight Up Vampires is pretty much exactly what it sounds like: vampire stories set to the music of Paula Abdul as performed by other musicians (Jason Trachtenburg, Corn Mo and more). The synopsis tells us "It's 1763 and there are vampires in Philadelphia. Paula Abdul Blackwood is a beautiful young quaker girl being forced into marriage with the wheelwright's son. Jack Sheridan, a politically idealistic young vampire, is the man she loves. Everywhere there is dissent. Fractious parties debate the future of the colony. MC Skat Kat and Benjamin Franklin vy for power in the Assembly." This could be the best 10 bucks you've ever spent.
Friday // 8pm // Bowery Poetry Club [308 Bowery] // $10"
Oh! Also, happy Free New Jersey Transit Weekend!

I guess I don't really need to tell you to go see Cloverfield. I saw it on Saturday and loved it, but I can understand people who say they weren't really impressed. I was a part of all of the internet hype before it came out, and it ended up being everything I expected it to, so hey, I just might be a little biased.
For someone who really didn't impress me with his initial work, J.J. Abrams is doing a hell of a job of convincing me that he's better than he used to be with Alias and Mission Impossible 3. I really dug the teaser trailer for Star Trek (and I'm not even that into Star Trek) that aired before Cloverfield as well. Did I mention that Charlie is going to be in that? Anyway, now I have something else to look forward to next holiday season.
Hey Marlena. I wouldn't have let you get bitten by a monster parasite.
