10/10/10! It's ten cubed! It's a hundred thousand. Or so. Can't really do it in my head.

We've had the most gorgeous weather lately. My membership to the Metropolitan was running out, so I decided to spend one last afternoon there. On the roof, they had this weird jungle gym thing called Bambu (artistic!) which was cool from my point of view, but which also had all these paths up into it you could see on timed tours. It's like how the Ewoks got from tree house to tree house. A sign listing great swaths of the population that shouldn't attempt the climb included acrophobics, but I tried to do it anyway. But there weren't any more tickets for that day, so it all worked out perfectly--I kind of faced my fear of heights and no one had to endure a freak-out.

As you can see from the Virgin mobile logo on the pix, I took them with my phone. This should in no way encourage you to get Virgin's phone service. My phone's been beeping in my ear since August and they haven't sent me a new one yet. (But when they come in, I'll be "among the first" to get one. I guess higher up the list from me are people whose phones are actually stabbing their eardrums with tiny knives.)
