premieres and parties

if you know me, there are very, VERY few reasons why i would get up earlier than necessary in the morning.

Aggie Football is one of those reasons.

Since we're having an incredible football season, our football coach, university president, and head of the association of former students were all in town. special thanks to the a&m club for hosting a meet & greet breakfast at the waldorf. we all trodded our way in the rain to the waldorf! i wouldn't be surprised if I looked like a wet dog walking in the door-- worth it! 

side note: dr. loftin posted a picture of lauren & i that we sent to him a while back in new york on his facebook page-- he remembered us and sought us out! it was so good to have a little piece of home in NYC. 

besides that, it's been a beautiful few days in the city! yesterday it even got up to 60 degrees- praise the Lamb! I think it was God's way of giving us a chance to catch our breath before the winter hits.

yesterday i walked outside my office to get some sunshine, and right outside the stock exchange was this (not so little) gem!  there were men handing out cups of hot chocolate and they even had live music. thank you for that, NYSE!

my friend lauren scored tickets to the billy on the street premiere at the theatre where the tonys were hosted. the surprise guest of the night was andy cohen-- host of watch what happens, and brooke shields happened to be sitting in the audience! the hipster to normal person ratio was dangerously high. 

someone live tweeted "brooke shields is buying everyone heineken after the show!" and she stood up and fist pumped. I like her already! 

students from the school I work at sung at trinity church today-- beautiful church & voices!

until later,
