Okay, why am I all giddy like its prom night?!
Last year’s NYE was a BLAST, but I’m pretty sure this year’s is going to be even better. We are going to BLVD/Crash Mansion on the lower east side. Its a “sprawling 18,000 square foot super-club with three venues, seven rooms and two levels all under one roof,” and of course there’s a 5-hour open bar.

Another perfect Manhattan Sunday
Despite the dreary weather, I wouldn’t have spent today any other way. We met the girls for an afternoon at the Museum of the City of New York. We learned that if we said we were “neighbors” to the museum, our admission would be comped. This is how THAT went down…

Its the most wonderful time of the year
Well my second Christmas in New York City has been a great one, but it really hasn’t felt like the holidays. The lights and the chilly weather and the festivities usually give away the time of year, but for all I know, it could be February right now. I guess that just comes with getting older.
Mom has been in the city for the past few days and we have done lots of walking and shopping and...

Me: ooo, I'd want a photo booth at MY wedding
Mom: Why? You'd be in it the whole time....posing.

Me: They kicked me out of here a few weeks ago because I brought Starbucks in with me
Mom: Aww, they should take all sinners
