About Me

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States
I love gerbera daisies. 20something laid back gal with an Irish-Catholic background and a thirst for beer and whiskey. Above are the Irish rioting in Philly, I aim to do my best to uphold the tradition. This is the story of my Philadelphia takeover.

Familiar Faces

Alison and David left this morning around 10:30am but not before I took them to the Green Line Cafe. We enjoyed coffee and everything bagels...well Alison messed up our group mentality and got yerba mate tea, but I commend her ability to think outside the box and stand up to my peer pressure to join the group!
We saw it all. We walked this city east to west and even a bit north to south. On the hit list were the following: University City, The Delaware River/Penn's Landing/Ben Franklin Bridge, the Walnut Street Theatre, Independence Hall, The Liberty Bell, The Philosopher's Society, Washington Square/Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Rittenhouse Square, Logan Square, Love Park, Moriarty's, Eulogy, H&M and Lush.
Twas a B-E-A-utiful day too! There's nothing like 70 degrees and sunny to make for an enjoyable day outside running around the city. We ate lunch outside at Moriarty's and had a semi-celeb siting, one of the guys from Bam Margera's crew was eating at the table behind us. He's from West Chester though so it wasn't that surprising.
Last night we enjoyed some beer and Chinese take-out because we were all pooped. I think it was a good choice after such a busy day.
This afternoon I have been writing stories and trying to clean up my slightly crazy bedroom. My Monday plans changed at about 4:00 p.m. when I received an e-mail from my editor sending me out on a PHOTO (yay) assignment. I'm going to a farm a few hours outside of the city with one of our writers. Very exciting, I'm going to get a photo credit!
Oh yeah, there's also a Rocky Movie Marathon going on all day and so I've been semi-watching the Italian Stallion all day as well. I'm in the midst of Rocky III actually. Oh Sly.
