THE WALDORF ASTORIA

Right now I'm in a lot of pain. I'm in a lot of pain because I was doing cartwheels with Gurj in the hallway of the Waldorf Astoria at 5am. There was video taken of this event and Gurj tells me that at the end you can hear me say "People over 20 years old should not be doing cartwheels" and a day later I stand by this comment. I can't walk right. I can't stand right. I want to get a cane. I think I might be an old lady. Yesterday afternoon I was riding my bike to a meeting, and got exhausted about 5 blocks from home and I also nearly ran over Tina Fey on Houston and 6th Ave (on my bike) about 5 seconds after thinking about how much I love "30 Rock."

Ladies and Gentlemen, my adventures are back!

I will post an extensive blog tomorrow which will detail exactly how I ended up at the Waldorf doing cartwheels. My friends have been saying they havent seen me so happy with life in TWO YEARS! It's like since friday november 30th (you know, THE date) my smile has been wider, my energy higher, my hunger for life more intense... i'm doing cartwheels in the hallway of a fancy hotel at 5 am for goodness sake! My soul is back. MY FUCKING SOUL IS BACK!

i could never do cartwheels. I'm more of a round-offs kinda guy. Tina Fey is amazing, although that would have made a good story if you ran here over on Drudgereport. Author/Cyclist mames 30Rock star.

What are you going to do now job-wise? Go back to Spin?

Is it a problem if I'm 20 years old and longing for the same feeling that I, too, don't really think I've had in almost 2 years?

yikes, I need to start coming to stolen transmission at hanger bar!

I guess getting laid off at IDJ was the best thing for you.

I hate to say it but the second you need an intern you are no longer young. But we can all age gracefully ...

I still do the occasional cartwheel... even at my age. Only outdoors, though; I don't trust myself not to put a foot through the china cabinet or something.

So, I don't actually suppose this may have success.
