My Favorite Aria

I popped into Balthazar to meet my cousin for a quick bite and to thank her for dropping off the concert tickets. I like the atmosphere every time I go into the space. But today was going to be an extraordinary day.

We were seated along the back wall of the restaurant, and I look away from the conversation I'm having with my cousin for a moment and notice a pretty woman walking into the restaurant. It takes me a second (probably less than a second, actually) to realize that this woman is in fact Aria Giovanni. She is without a doubt my favorite and has been since at least September, 2000. There were some who doubted my sighting (since she lives on the West Coast), but I think this bit of evidence proves me right.

I love New York.
