London Calling
It's been a few days since the last update because Matt and I went to London. We were there because Matt's best friend, Oliver, just had a baby with his girlfriend, Dagmar, and Matt is the Godfather. I wasn't going to go -- I only have two weekends left in New York City! -- but decided to do it and am glad I did. The baby, Imogen, is adorable and was so much fun to get to know. She has 2 settings -- silent and screaming. Here is a picture of the latter. Maybe it's not right that we took turns taking pictures with her while she was hysterically crying, but how could we resist?
Imogen has the lung capacity of three grown men, so I was nervous that she would really put the acoustics in Westminster Cathedral to the test during the baptism -- but she slept through the entire thing, even when the priest took her hat off and dumped water on her head!
As for London, we didn't spend much time in the city. Ollie, Dagmar and Imogen live in Peckham, which might technically be London, but isn't in the city itself. Still, we did have a drink by the Thames and dinner in a pub with our old friend Amy. And we popped by the London office of the magazine I work for. See how I wrote "popped by" ... After 3 days there I took on a British accent. I'm so Madonna!
