TC came down on Saturday for our annual day of fun in the sun. We went over to DUMBO and lounged around in the park before we started across the Brooklyn Bridge. It was the first time for both of us. A bit strange since we both grew up in NYC, a good 50 years (at least) of city-living between us. Then again I love steak and I've never been to Luger's. The pedestrians on the bridge are complete assholes; walking four or more abreast, blocking off both the pedestrian path and the bike lane. The breeze at the apex of the walkway was incredibly refreshing. I would walk to work everyday if I lived in DUMBO.
We got to Manhattan as the sun set, and drifted down into the South Street Seaport. It was an amazing evening to be out, but we ate at this crappy restaurant, Red, that took a bit of luster off the days proceedings. M15 bus back uptown over to the Q32 and we were back home by midnight. TC had arranged a hair appointment on Sunday morning, so we called it an early night.
Bubba Gump the next day. Crayons and shrimp. Huzzah!
Met AB and her bro at MoMA on Monday. We managed to avoid all the interesting bits and were instead cruising for young ladies who might want to become friendly with the younger B.
Now that was a waste of time, so we met up with the bf of AB and had lunch at Ellen's Stardust Diner of singing waitstaff fame. That didn't go over too well either. There was no pleasing the boy. Hershey's Store? That was a little better. We eventually just came back to my place where we played video games and I cooked dinner for the sibs from Cali (tofu stir fry!)
July 4th was an odyssey. Two parties in the LES and it was hot as balls. Met RV at Penn Station and dodged rats to get to WS's place. Stuck around for an hour and rushed over to KR's for some poker and the fireworks. Stole out of there with some of her excess food and back to WS's for a drink-fueled, ice-stuffing good time. But it always ends in heartbreak doesn't it.
Animaniacs & Pinky and the Brain are out on DVD tomorrow!
