Me, right now in the Atlanta airport, waiting for Delta to explain why my flight is delayed an hour. You’d think I would have learned, having NEVER had a smooth or on time departure with Delta at this airport, but nope I let my sweet mom book my trip instead of insisting I would fly southwest on my own. Never again.

Also of note: I think I was on a flight from LAX to Vegas with a Disney channel star on the show “Shake It Up.” Me recognizing this is already a sign that I babysit too much… Me then texting one of the dads I work for to ask his daughters if this kid on my flight was the same guy on TV is just sad.

Last of Hawaii/Vegas photo dump. Private champagne checkin at the palazzo? Yes please.

We went to Shania Twain’s show last night and I was amazed by two things: Twice during the show she rode a live horse onto stage and at one point sang “Still the One” while atop a white horse (SO VEGAS)… and HER HAIR IS DOWN TO HER BUTT DOES ANYONE KNOW IF SHE HAS EXTENSIONS?!

I would pay a week’s worth of earnings to be a fly on the wall watching that last paragraph go down.

“Rain Room”
Random International

MoMA, W54th St., NYC (bt 5th & 6th Ave)

Random International’s immersive environment is presented in the lot directly adjacent to The Museum of Modern Art. A field of falling water that pauses wherever a human body is detected, Rain Room offers visitors the experience of controlling the rain. Known for their distinctive approach to contemporary digital practice, Random International’s experimental projects come alive through audience interaction—and Rain Room is their largest and most ambitious to date. Rain Room is open daily during regular Museum hours. Note: Admittance to the queue will end once it reaches capacity, prior to Museum closing.

“In order for visitors to enjoy the sensory experience of Rain Room, capacity is limited to 10 people at a time. Entry is on a first-come, first-served basis and wait times are expected to be significant. Entry is not guaranteed. Please note that the queue for Rain Room is outside, so plan your visit accordingly.”

new york is just not my city (SORRY CITY LOVERS I REALLY AM i mean i like to visit but i dont ever dream of a life there) but if i lived there i would stand in the txts line every sunday and see a show every opportunity i could and i would do stuff like go see this MoMA exhibt at some random obscure time just because i could.

We love this wooden slide that is slotted into a combined staircase and bookshelf of a house in Chungcheongbuk-do, South Korea,
