Two Happy Things + One…uhhhh…Thing
Ξ May 13th, 2008 | → | ∇ travel |
I’m going to New York, I’m going to New York! Wheeeeeeeeeeee!! Honestly, I didn’t realize how much I wanted to go there until I was telling someone else that I would like to see her realize her dream now because life is simply too damn short. While singing the praises of living a well balanced life where one truly can have it all, it dawned on me that I too can have it all.
And that I want to once again step inside the Statue of Liberty. (Last time I was there I was 12 and with my grandparents who didn’t want to climb up inside of her.) That I have desired to see Ground Zero since the moment I stepped onto the field here in Pennsylvania. Regardless if I am with good friends or a great love, dammit I want a carriage ride in Central Park. Our bagels are pretty damn good here in Pittsburgh, I even used to work at Bagel Land when I was in high school, but I have always wanted to taste a fresh, hot bagel in New York. Don’t even get me started on the pizza that makes my mouth water at the mere thought of its cheesy goodness. Of course street vendors with their knock off crap call to me. As does China Town. And the Empire State Building. What I wouldn’t give to see a live performance on Broadway. To take a double decker bus ride around Time Square. All the while hearing folks talk like Dawg. Fuck, I also really want to go to the Big Apple!
So I am. I am going. Taking my own advice that life is too short and I am just doing it. Shacking up with four amazing internet friends who now have skin on em after we met in Philly. Look out Midtown, I will see you in a little over a month. My internet friends and I will see you soon. Flights and hotel are already booked. Yay!
Ok, that was the first happy thing. On to the second. Deep breath. Alright, as terrible as it is, I love this…
Finally, I will be in Reno for a good part of this week. Wednesday early AM I fly out, returning close to midnight as Saturday turns to Sunday. So if you get some drunk blogging then you will not be surprised. Don’t say I didn’t warn ya. Trade shows have a way of doing that to me. Wheeeeeee!

Wow flights AND hotel are already booked? You guys move VERY fast!
It’s good to live life… rather than watch it lived for you.

Have a blast in NY. I would find out if you need tix in advance for the Statue of Liberty or Empire State - my Sil’s parents just tried to take the grandkids - they were able to ferry to the Statute but not go up and the ESB was sold out also.

Damn girl you are all over it! Y’all are going to have a great time–I LOVE New York!!
That Chick Norris thing is making me giggle.
I want a drunk text or two and maybe some boobies.

If you really want a good bagel, make sure you get to H&H bagels on the upper West Side.. no better bagels in NYC…. They even ship overnight…

libragirl - after our philly fiasco, we learned to book in advance! thanks for the reminder.
turn - yep, all over. the weekend after the nyc adventure i will be making out with jester and umb in california. wheeeeeee! (but all i know is turn is fucking fabulous AND wants my boobies. life is good!)
bubblewench - duly noted! thanks for the tip. h&h…check. hmmmm, i wonder where the soup nazi is located.

NYC will be fun - wish I could come!

AWESOME! can’t wait to meet you! I will be posting text only for the graphics later today when I stop being sick as a dog.

Spend as much time as you can in a cab. NYC cabbies do some things that violate all the laws of physics and, I think, some of the temporal laws.

Damn government firewall won’t let me see Chuck. Have fun in NYC!

I wanna go to NYC. And I can’t. Unless I find me a sugar daddy right quick.
I’m not sure if you can go up inside Lady Liberty anymore. I know they had it closed for a while after 9/11, but I don’t know if they opened it back up again.
And don’t forget a ferry ride around Manhattan… it’s worth the time.

I want to go soooooo bad. It is on my list of things to do, too. Need to win the lottery. I will live vicariously through you until then.
I don’t get what that thing is. I’m confused.
Drunk text me please! Pretty please? Sending you my cell number via email. I might even be doing my own drunk texting.

Yeah, what Delmer said this morning…
the taxis are interesting.
You’ll enjoy yourself.

britt - you did not “fuck up” our hotel reservations. i love sleeping in a twin bed. or the bathtub. whatever. honestly, we will work it out. we have a month! (although i so didn’t call the hotel today. but i will. might even have my hotel friend call…pull in a favor or something.)
avit - i really wanna make crude comments about you cumming, but i am trying desperately to restrain myself. sigh. i hate censoring myself.
cf - ohhhhhh, graphics. schwa-eeet. thanks! i already booked my flight. i think i get in that friday at the ass crack o fucking dawn. wait. i just checked. lga at 8:22 in the morning. wanna play hookie from work and run around nyc until britt and karl show up?
delmer - ohh, another reminder. dramamine…check. thanks. xoxo
gwen - don’t worry about chuck, just get your ass to nyc. we need another roomie in our fancy schmancy hotel that only has twin beds. hehe
finn - if you find you a sugah daddy, ask if he has a brother. i could use a…ummm…sugah uncle? and also, i love fairy rides. wait. yeah, them too!
googlegirl - fuck yeah you can live vicariously through me. the drunk texts will begin wednesday evening. i warn you, they won’t be pretty. and they will probably come from a bunch of my friends in addition to me. we are assholes that way.
zz - don’t you live in the area? you gonna meet up for a drink or 20 with us?
donnie - turn licked my cheek about 2.2 minutes after meeting me. and she is fucking fabulous.
on May 13th, 2008 at 9:32 pm
I’m telling you…the cheesier the better. I can’t wait to lick Knish while watching a homeless man piss in the street.
Ahhh, New York ;).
on May 13th, 2008 at 9:38 pm
hill - what about licking me while watching karl piss just about anywhere? hehe
on May 13th, 2008 at 10:30 pm
Uh…I sent you pictures of Don Jr. about 2.2 minutes after meeting you…via e-mail! I win.
