We started doing these adventures to get exercise, amusingly enough, since my metabolism has kicked in again and I have tons of energy (yay for meds working!). What better way to do that in NYC? Sooo much walking everywhere heh. It's nice to lose the thyroid weight (and see results) and have a lot of fun in the process and learn a thing or two. It has also been fun to play tourist in my hometown. I feel so ignorant most of the time when we go to these places.
We love the seaport and go a lot since we can walk there. I saw that exhibit - very cool. I love old stuff. It was empty when we went too - Oh - the Walt Whitman exhibit was going on with actual vocal recordings and Dutch Settlers garbage, ooops, I mean artifacts. Zoe ran around all over the place. One day I need to go to these things on my own so I can actually read the notes.
Frank and I want to move there too, especially now that it no longer smells like fish. Although, I miss the fish market... it sort of made it authentic.
I LOVE the seaport. When my last job laid me off, I was mostly upset about not getting to be in that area everyday (not really as upset about losing the job haha). What is exciting is that my current job is moving across from Abercrombie in the main part of the seaport at the end of the month! I can't wait. I have been so antsy to get there already
( ... )
Frank and I went to dinner there a week after 9/11 - the pub workers were so happy to see us that we got special personal service. :) Doesn't phase me really. The area is pretty much hopping again.
Do you think you'll relocate to an apartment down there?
I wonder, if they do build condos over the fish market, will the residents be haunted by fish ghosts?
Well, we are definitely moving downtown this coming year since we both work downtown (and I will be even further downtown come October) and our building is not well taken care of at all. We also need a space change since S and I started doing music again and the instruments and other fun musical things are starting to take over our tiny space ;). I guess all the way down there is not a bad possibility. Hmmm..
Maybe the residents in the new condos with always smell that memorable smell ;)
That film is certainly disturbing. The content is good. The editing, not so much. Very little of it was surprising, unfortunately. I'm guessing the MPAA will kill themselves over James Cameron Mitchell's new film "Shortbus"
Of course, the seating in that place makes me feel like I'm flying coach on some 3rd-worl airline. ;)
Well, for me it was surprising since I really did not know that the ratings board was that shrouded in secrecy and also had clergy sitting in on the appeals boards. I always knew Valenti was pure evil but this doc defintitely painted him in an even more evil light. I wasn't really bothered by the editing. I kind of like the choppy, not perfect doc editing style ;)
I love those seats!! I did not want to get up. They are WAY more comfortable than coach! However, the patterned ones look like they were stolen straight off the old LIRR cars when the LIRR seats used to be plush instead of leather.
