sharapova
ok - I guess every year the women at the US Open have to outdo each other on their tennis outfits. Sharapova comes out with this black evening dress type of thing complete with patent black leather bag?…I’m a tennis fan and player and if you’ve guessed that I play in shorts… you’re onto me.

As a tennis fan, I am of course accompanying the US Open, which despite a minor rain delay, opened today.

Guggenheim
Went to the Guggenheim, using its Friday pay-what-you wish entry option. Paid a buck to see Zaha Hadid’s exhibit. She’s amazing - so much space and all that concept-building to take it up. Also saw the Pollock exhibit of paitings on paper, but frankly, I’m really upset that a guy got to splash paint all […]
