Damn! It being Sunday says that there is but one week left of my time in New York. You know what that means? It’s the perfect time to get a cold and feel shitty, that’s what. Spent the last couple of days a sweaty, gooky mess but managed to get out and about thanks to miracle drugs. Not very far though, in fact both days it was only as far as the park by the piers to chill out on the grass and read and watch the world go by. I like doing that though so it’s not time wasted. Does people watching make me a voyeur? Feeling remarkably better today thanks to drugs and a few glasses of red wine last night.
The rest of my trip around the US is now booked. I looked at a map the other day and realised that my geographic knowledge of this place is worse than I thought, and I was already convinced it was pretty bad. Boston’s by the sea? Who knew? Now that I have the States the right way up I probably stand a better chance of getting from one place to another.
Think I might take the Staten Island ferry today or maybe go to Coney Island again and see the sea. Either sounds quite tempting.
Laura I have it on good authority that Krispy Kremes are just a brand name for a donut type thing so they’re not crispy like you think.
Had a good wander around Greenwich last night before stopping at a little Indian (How) for a bite. Had a look in a shop that sold only gay porn video’s and Glen Miller CD’s. I’m sure that makes sense in some way that just eludes me at the moment. Why did I go in? Because it was there. Did I buy anything? Hell no, I already have Glen Miller on my Ipod.
I wouldn’t worry about your lack of knowledge when it comes to American geography, many American –presidents- can’t even locate most countries on a map let alone pronounce them correctly.
They do however have donuts filled with mince, yummy.
