What a fun Friday! Some of my friends and I got together and hung out, watched TV, talked, and played music all afternoon and into the evening. I restrung my ukulele with some new and better strings, so my uke is easier to play and sounds better now. While we were hanging out and goofing around I also recorded a video.
The song is an oldie made re-popularized today by "She and Him".
My new goal for this is to record a new video wherever I hang out on Friday and record it with people that I am hanging out with. So, if you want to be featured, leave a comment below or email me!
Sometimes after a long hard day of work, you need to forget about the day, forget about the calories and have a good burger and a drink! That is how I was feeling when my boyfriend and I decided to go out to a very highly rated burger place I found on Yelp that was close to the theater that I was working at. Their website says "WE'RE OPEN EVERY DAY INSIDE OF BILLY HURRICANES AND IDLE HANDS BAR AT 25 AVENUE B IN THE EAST VILLAGE." Yes. They are inside of two different bars. This didn't quite make sense to me, but that is exactly how it is, A burger stand in the middle of a bar. I'm guessing it's a symbiotic relationship, people who are drinking and want food eat the burgers and people who want burgers and happen to be inside of a bar get drinks from the bar. I happened to want both that day and was very satisfied. We decided on Billy Hurricanes. It was Happy Hour on a Friday and we managed to find a place to sit which was great. I ordered the single burger with cheddar and all the toppings (including FREE grilled JALAPENOS!) with BBQ sauce and a side of tots. I then got a "sweet tea" from the bar. (and man did that taste like regular sweet tea!) The Burger was delicious! One of the best I have had in NYC. and very affordable cheeseburger at just $6. I was most happy with the option of free jalapenos and the choice of sauce on the burger.

Only 126 days until Christmas! I am hoping to do what I have done in the past and have all of my presents be homemade. So, yes, I have started already.
So tech week struck again! and I had to go missing for two weeks (I am also balancing two shows at the same time...)
BUT I have been thinking about changing a few things on my blog. I will still do Motley Mondays, but now I want to post a video on Friday (Viernes Videos). These videos may be me playing my Ukulele, or a tutorial or something else. You tell me what you want to see!
