Dinosaurs in space!

24 Jul

As those of you who follow me or Twitter and/or Facebook know, I am going to New York in late October/early November to visit a dear friend of mine, and of course, to see the city I’ve dreamed of seeing since FOREVER.

However, I didn’t really have a clear view of what I wanted to see in NY when asked. Faye (my friend) suggested we at least go to the Museum of Natural History, and I googled it at work today (because work was slow and I was so tired of correcting other peoples’ mistakes that I wanted to scream). And, I found that yes, I would indeed very much like to go to this museum, and there are two exhibits I MUST see there: Dinosaurs and space.

Two somewhat different fields of interest, no?

So as I was pondering this curious combination of dinosaurs and space, I suddenly remembered this dream I had once where dinosaurs returned to earth, and someone decided that we should send the T-Rex into space to get rid of it, BUT THEN IT SURVIVED. IN SPACE. I wanted to draw it for you, but then I remembered how absolutely awful my drawing skills are, so I made this collage instead:

T-Rex in Space

If you know where the T-Rex has stolen his quote from, you are automatically cool and we should talk. Hit me up when you’re in the neighbourhood, ok?

    Absolutely required place to go when you’re over there: The DISNEY STORE! (yes! Three stories of Disney MADNESS) It’s on 5th Avenue. Just next to the diamond shops, chocolate shops, and a giant toystore.

    Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal

    Hva annet enn Firefly, lizzm!?

    A great place to just hang out is the village. And check out St Mark’s place, it’s New York’s “punk” street with lots of cute punk stores and there are also some roads nearby with lots of cute cafés. ;)

    I get to see you! I AM SO EXCITED!
    and I really like the idea of the Disney store, because I’m just that childlike, still… :)

    Museum of Natural History sounds really interesting as well.
    Of course I’m only there for one full day, and that’s the day you get in, so I don’t think I’ll be able to do any all-day things, but that’s okay – I’ll take what I can get, which is mostly seeing you, and Faye, and hopefully Matthew! (in a if he doesn’t come see me I will probably never forgive him way…*innocent look*)
