If You Lived Here, You'd Be Home Already...
...And You'd Also Be Flat Broke, Because The Rent Is Damn Expensive.
The most exciting thing ever is happening in New YorkCity: The Gates! For those of you who haven't heard - and you should have, because even my Mom knows about them and she lives in Minnesota - you can click on the link above and see an illustration of what they are and what they will look like.
I'd always thought that Christo's previous stuff was not really all that interesting, other than being a punchline on one of my favorite Simpson's episodes. That is, I should say, not until now!
I just went out at lunchtime to have a looky-loo at them as they're being set up, and they already look superfantabulous, even though they haven't undone the billowy curtainy bits yet (that's supposed to happen this weekend). Central Park is currently a dreary, wretched gray color, due to it being winter, except now it's shot through with these bright orange gate thingies all running through it everywhere. It just looks neat and surreal and fun. If you live in New York you should definitely make sure to have a look at them - they're only going to be here from this weekend through February 27th.
If you don't live in New York, you should really move here as soon as possible, but that's unrelated to the Gates, actually, and is true at all times.
That is all.
