this past weekend I've been honored with the presence of several of my far away friends. Here's what we did.
Friday, Kelly and I went into the city Friday morning, I worked at the Gallery and she went about town on her own.
We headed to Katz's for dinner (after stopping in some awesome industrial lamp stores along the way) and met up with another friend of mine from Florida and two of her other fellow new jeresy-iean friends ( insert fist pump dance here).
after waiting in the subway for Marty for a while (wrong train..uuggh) he met up with us and we headed to Rich to Riches- this really cool rice pudding place... delicious.
we parted ways with my fist pumping crew and Kelly, Marty and I headed up to Don and Cami's for the night .
Since it was Marty's first time in NYC we wanted to make sure he got to see the sights. With Kelly's food-directed plan for the day in mind, we headed out for coffee and scones with Cami and met up with Jessica Gill.
(side note: Cami is coming to the Ingrid concert with us in a few weeks.... she just upped her coolness factor!)
through out the day we hit up cathedrals, coffee shops, thrift stores, The Strand (one of the coolest places in NY ... at least in my opinion... a second hand book store) Union SQ, the NY public lib, time square and Big Nicks for Dinner... we walked and walked and walked and walked... are we sensing a theme? We headed home, exhausted.
Went to church in Wash. Nj and just hung around till Marty caught a bus... were we did our very best to embarrass him by loud obnoxious cheering and hollering while he waited for the bus to take off... and then again on the road when we caught up to it in our car... Keep it awkward people... that's my life mato/goal.
good weekend.
