Well, I made it back from NYC.
That place is so full of (A) concrete and (B) beach trees... it's just nuts.
Central Park is awesome, and balm to my soul (I *love* The Ramble, but all the bits I got to see were lovely. Except for the random portable-fairground thing... That was a little incongruous...). All that green... Balm to my soul. <3 :-)
Time Square is insane. It's the place where the city herds all the tourists. (I feel a bit funny saying that, since I'm not exactly a local or anything, but still. I wasn't exactly pawing at my girlfriend and going "I wanna see the Empire State Building!" and such-like. We saw the Slipper Room. And the park. And that was about it. Did I mention I really like Central Park? It's heavenly. I really, really like it).
Nolita has its charms, for sure (in the form of tiny little bakeries and organic delis and hat shops and houses that look a bit like the ones in China Town and beautifully ornate fire escapes on old, old, retrofitted apartment buildings.
I think I could get to like the place. :-)
She made me a mixed CD for our anniversary. It has Our Song on it and a bunch of other stuff that makes me get all sniffly.
Miss her so much already. (No surprises there).
Anyway. Work tomorrow. I'm exhausted. And a little giddy since "dinner" has been mango gelato.
Not entirely sure what I'm doing for lunch tomorrow, though I suspect it will involve cubes of cheese.
Anyway. Time to go.
