NYC Baby!!!

so....here I am in New York New York, the capital of the world. I feel like everyone else must be out and about enjoying the city after dark. Basking in the bright glow of the Times Square lights, going out to see shows that they can't really afford to see but not really caring.

On the subject of shows, I tried to buy tickets for Next To Normal ( which according to most of the girls on the Idina message boards is a great show). I went to buy them at the TKTS kiosk on broadway. I was offered a pair of tickets costing 75 bucks each. and get this.....for an obstructed view!! the guy said we were only going to miss three short parts but I don't get to see shows like this often and I don't have money to see it again so I did not want to miss any part if the show.

Long story short, we went to the Met instead to see the Vermeer exhibit. I was mad and jealus of course at the begnning. Mad because I was not going to be able to see the show that I had heard so much about, and jealus because some other girl was there seeing it. But I had a great time at the museum nonetheless.

After our adventure in the city, which included some mishaps on the subway, we made it to our cousin's house. and that is where I am now.

I wish I was brave enough to hop on that subway and go out and see the glitter of Times Square and at least see the crowds of excited theatregoers at stage-doors.

that is the view from here tonight.
