Free The Museums!!! A Handy Guide To Hunting Down The Finest (And Free-est) Museums In NYC
TBH, I’m always stumped when people ask me what my “hobbies” are. Like… I’m an adult??? I don’t have hobbies??? My jobs are so amazing, they can sometimes feel like hobbies (paranormal, true crime, arts and crafts, these are hobbies!).

? Don’t Be Alarmed… ?
It is a scientific FACT (probably) — that at any given hour of any given day, in any given neighborhood of New York City, there will be an alarm going off. And any given New Yorker will promptly respond

LOST: my inspiration. FOUND: this stuff…
So I just told you in my boat post that I’ve been struggling with finding “inspiration.” That’s pretty harsh, but it’s true. I’ve been actively searching for, but (largely) failing to find, things that excite me. Apologies in advance for sounding like a
