angelchickenThis is a good city. A great city. A FANTASTIC city.
I am really enjoying my stay.
Also, because I am staying at my friends place I can be a lazy ass and stay in bed until two without feeling guilt or ramifications or anything. I can just chillax. This is especially good as I have been a wee bit under the weather this week. BOO! I was all sniffley and wasn't sleeping well, so I have been sleeping HARD in the mornings, usually between eight and eleven. I keep waking up during the night and I don't want to be a Sleepy McGee when I do see my friends in the afternoon.
I have seen old friends and met babies (some of which were WEE! Lil' Katie couldn't have been more then nine pounds and had a tiny head and was all cheek. SO CUTE!) and revisited some of my favorite neighborhoods and I think I am going to be wandering around Central Park this evening and then tomorrow I will be headed to Connecticut with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
the_lbb and her fella to meet anothe college suitemate I haven't seen in years and years.
It'll be awesome, this I know.
I have also revisited favorite food places, which is always fun. There is a place around the corner from where I am staying that make AMAZING empanadas and there is the Bouchon place which is decedent and delicious AND I went to Rice to Riches because I was in the area and any store the successfully sells 20 different flavors of rice pudding is all right by me. I got some of the good ol' cinnamon raisin do not regret a bite. Especially since I have been walking a lot. Which is lovely. I love walking in New York because it is always so interesting and seamless and I miss that. Chicago has so much space there isn't really a way to walk from neighborhood to neighborhood without passing through a lot of residential space. And while that I lovely as well, it does tend to get repetitive after a bit.
Well, as it's officially two o'clock I should probably jump in the shower and make myself presentable for any future events. Even if I just hang out until I meet up in the city at least I will be hanging out ready to go.
Which is something.
Or something.
OH! I emailed guitar guy this morning (finally) and he emailed me back pretty quickly. Whee! Communication is awesome. And he signed up for the next guitar session even though he said he wasn't going to. I like to think it's because I called him a punk, but I only called him that this morning and he signed up a wee bit back.
Either way, it's all good.
PEACE
