About Me

- Name: Michelle Au
My name is Michelle Au. I'm 32 years old and I am an attending anesthesiologist in Atlanta, Georgia. Before that, I was a resident at Columbia-Presbyterian Hospital in NYC. I currently live in Atlanta with my husband Joe, our two sons, Cal (born July 2005) and Mack (born January 2009), and our wayward canine Cooper. A long time ago, I used to go to Hunter College High School, an institution for nerds who think they're cool. Then I went to Wellesley College, an institution for women who think they're womyn. Those were the days. The Underwear Drawer is an online journal that I started October 2000 because I felt like medical school had sapped every last drop of creative energy from my being, and that keeping an online journal (as they were called at the time) would at least be better than making some elaborate study chart about the Krebs cycle, which is something that no one ever needs to know again after the first year of med school. This site is called "The Underwear Drawer" because that's where I used to hide my journal when I was a wee mite. Sneaky, no? Unfortunately, this name also attracts a lot of porn-seeking web surfers. Hello, porn aficionados!

my favorite is #5, because if you squint a little, it looks like that woman has a giant round white belly. there is something very pleasing about someone working at a fabulous shop like that an having such an enormous belly. pregnant with the cheese baby! or, can't stop eating the sample trays! oh well.
I love this picture. I am coming to NYC for a sister weekend in Nov. I want to go here!!!
Can you give a tourist some great NY places like this, that are your "must-sees?"
thanks

I don't know what you would enjoy, but I know if I were a tourist in New York, I would want to:
1.) Walk around Central Park, maybe go row-boating (boat-rowing?) on the lake if it was a nice day
2.) Walk around Soho and look at all the pretty boutiques and pretend like I had money to spend
3.) Walk around Brooklyn Heights to get a great view of Manhattan along the Esplanade
4.) Go to the Museum of Natural History, which is one of my favorite museums on Earth. All the exhibits Holden mentions in "Catcher in the Rye" are still on display, and I love that.
5.) Eat. Eat a lot.
Those are the things I would do. But I'm pretty boring. You might be up for more wild activities...
