I'm Home





I made it back in one piece.

It was amazing. I had so much fun. Coming home was really hard.

So I went to all the big museums. I ate pizza, and Chinese food, and hot dogs, and muffins, and drank lots of coffee.

I rode the subway. By myself. Without dieing.
Yay me :)

I met Craig, of Cubist Literature, and got to visit his amazing studio in Red Hook.

I did so many things and visited so many places, that I think I made myself a little sick. I had the worst migraine yesterday, and was so tired that I just slept and watched Flight of the Concords all day.

I did manage to feel a little bit better by the end of the day thankfully. I had to drop of some work at the Fact and Fancy Gallery in downtown Brooklyn. The gals that runs the gallery are really nice, and the space is very cute. I am excited to be part of their fist show!

I know that there are a million things that I am leaving out and that I wanted to talk about, but I just can't remember them all right now.

All I can say is that I had an amazing time and that I laughed more this week than I have in a long time....and I even learned a couple of new things about myself in the end. Good times.

Awesome

New York is pretty much awesome.

Awesome.

I have walked more miles the last few days than I have walked in a very long time.

I think I am getting the hang of the subway, which is very good. My sense of direction is still awful, but I am learning the subway system ok. Which is good because I am basically on my own on Monday, and need to get to downtown Brooklyn...but I think I can do it.

I have been going everywhere, and seeing everything, and it's very awesome.
I have three blisters on my pinkie toe...but it hasn't stopped me :)

We went to Coney Island today. It has to be one of THE most bizarre places I have ever been to. We saw the "Freak Show" and basically walked around eating hot dogs and ice cream. Good times.

Anyway, there is a lot to talk about...more things to see...and I am hungry.
More later :)

PS I have a ton of pictures...but no way of uploading them.
I'll put them all on my Flickr when I get home.
