New York City is amazing. I never cease to be surprised even after 25 years of residency. At any given moments notice, it can provide your unplanned day (or week) with a little spontaneity.
This past week or week and a half has been filled with after work drinks at Disiac's, late dinners, a little dancing at Myst (too bad I had work clothes on), meeting up w/ former college roomies twice, Ulysses and the sea of Wall street suits, shots of Petron (Kay and I got named the "Petron girls"), spur of the moment weekend trip waaay downtown for Financier for outdoor coffee, sweets, & gossip (I'm officially hooked on illy so much that I am contemplating buying a coffee maker), meeting up w/ Joaquin in the city several times, driving his Caddy through the city. The cool part is that we can be sitting in the car and just decide to catch a flick. But if that doesn't work out, heading to Queens' Listo Pollo is open and here we go for another late dinner of Argentinian Grilled Steak, maduros, rice & beans.. yum! Not enough? Hitting up Dunkin Donut's Coffee Coolatta is the same as a coffee milk shake. I'm sure if my stomach lets me, I'd be heading to La Perrada de Chala for some Hawaiian hot dogs and Salchi Papas (heart attack right there once you factor in the "pink sauce"). NYC doesn't end in the city or in Queens, because if I remember correctly, the water taxi beach/bar/club? was one of Joaquin's stops to show me what Brooklyn had to offer.
And it's only Sunday (the day before labor day). I still have Jackie's Bday BBQ tonight. Who knows what will happen tonight.. wherever the night (or the city) takes us...
Tomorrow is Justin Timberlake's Futuresex/Lovesounds HBO concert, and I hope I get to watch it because I love his songs, he's so talented, and very good looking (but not as handsome as my bf, especially if he is reading this... hehehe. I LOVE YOU!)
