Preparations
I’m ready for NY.
I went to the store and bought up a few turtlenecks, slacks, ear muffs and a pair of gloves. I’ve got a good coat, a few hats and some thermal underwear that I bought for the Peru trip. I should be alright. Got a decent pair of plastic boots to wear too
as well as a good scarf.So today I booked us tickets to Apollo Theater’s Amateur night and we’ll eat at a Harlem staple: Sylvia’s Restaurant - soul food. There’s a pizza that I want to try in Brooklyn - but the wait is supposed to be quite horrible and in the cold - I doubt we’d be able to do it ;).
I made reservations at another nice restaurant for New Years Eve - Park Avenue Winter. It looks good - got voted as one of the 10 new restaurants for NYC. Found another joint that doesn’t take reservations but is a really cool restaurant that we’ll try to get into :).
So I’ve been productive - I guess.
We’ve got something scheduled basically for every night. Chris Rock & nice dinner for NYE, Jazz on New Years Day, Apollo & dinner the next day, Daniel’s restaurant dinner for the last day. I’ve been lookin up places and honestly - I’m gonna stop. You can want to eat everywhere
Arrgh - I am tired as hell. Despite all of this busy work, I’ve been literally blowing away feelings of sadness (forcing ‘bad air’ out of my body when I feel it comin’ on… can’t let it get a firm grip on me. * love that zoloft pill or pebble or grain of rice - whatever that fucking thing is
Obviously the marketing has worked on this bitch.
Weird, LA says it’s because we haven’t had a good year. I don’t think so - my year was alright. It’s situational
But I’m working on it. No time for that crap to slow me down!
We’re all lookin forward to the New Year…
Some of us are a little more excited about it. That’s all….

Wow! You are so all set for NY. The plans sound lovely. I am quite envious actually!
Hope you have a grand grand time.
love,

Sounds like you’ve got a nice plan there! This morning I was thinking about how to have some fun myself. A person should have fun.
Can I hide in your suitcase and go with you! Sounds like soooo much fun. I might try and brave the cold to get that pizza. YUMMMMMMM!
I will be thinking about you when that ball drops.
Have fun!
