Meet Mort!

What did you do this weekend? I made a moppet. It's not quite a mop, it's not quite a puppet...but man, is it funny!

This is Mort, my new best friend. I made him at the McCarren Park Pool Party this weekend. Last week, I got to see Of Montreal, Irving, Enon, and Asobi Seksu, all for free. It was pretty great. I wasn't that into the bands this week, so I decided to move over to the Arts and Crafts tent sponsored by Yaris®.

There were a bunch of CIA kids there who were running an arts and crafts table where you could make sock dogs. A sock dog is a dog made out of a sock. My sock dog didn't look much like a dog, so I decided to make a Mort instead. He was pretty popular. I wish I'd brought a camera, because I could have taken pictures of the people taking pictures of Mort, probably for their blogs.
