Lots of sleep till Brooklyn.

This song comes a little late, but it is dedicated to my flatmate, who, if she had have stayed in bed like the song and everyone else says, might not be in hospital with pneumonia right now.

Today is just a bit strange.

It's getting colder and darker as the day goes on, an ominous presence seems to be sweeping away the Indian summer that this week has enjoyed, ushering in, what? Winter? Sadness? Indifference? Best ward off bad spirits with the Stones.....

Keeping an ear to the ground.

So it seems there is no end to crazy New York souvenirs. When you pick up your authentic New York Garbage Box, why not accessories with a pair of genuine New York dirt earrings?

Thanks to Manita for this gem!

Living for the city.

I'm trying really hard to remember to live and enjoy the 158 days that stand between me and NYC. It's hard, especially when the good NY fairy (I imagine she looks a little like Debbie Harry) sits on your shoulder and whispers "would that $5 be better spent in NYC?" or "is this night out worth one less night out in NYC". But then there are days, like today, when the world just goes a bit tits up, and and all you can do is grin and remember that soon the phone will stop ringing, the only coffee you'll be getting is your own, and all the crazy that is right now driving you nuts, will become a source of great amusement.

So today's one of those days, when I feel like I am, indeed, living for the city.

Stevie knows what I mean.

Check this shit out.

I'm going to try very hard to never utter the phrase only in ny (whoops) but if I did ever say it, which I'm not, but if I did, this would be the time and the place.





The master of New York music videos.

I just hope New York really is made of cardboard.
