There’s new growth on our apartment ZZ plant. And, though you can’t see it, I assure you there’s another baby coming out of the soil as well. Don had neglected to water the Chinese Evergreen, which was looking alarmingly droopy when I arrived. Some watering revived it. I have faced the fact that not only will I have to remember what plants need watering at home in the cottage, I’ll have to keep a list for this place as well. Then a call will be placed to Mr. Broadway, in which I will tell him to water the plant while I’m on the phone.
Maybe via FaceTime, so I have proof.
Just before I took this photo, there was a cacophony of horn blowing as someone had double parked on the street which caused a traffic backup. Very NYC: If someone or something is not moving, lay on the horn.
Yesterday was a gray day and I underdressed, thinking it would feel warmer than it actually did. Nevertheless, I walked around 20 blocks to the Apple Store where I had to pick up a couple of things. I do like the convenience. At home, I have to drive for an hour to get to one. Then, of course, my bladder was alarmingly full, so I had to do the usual “Does this place have a public bathroom?” frantic search until I finally found one. That in itself is exhausting. I ran a few errands, took a few pictures, walked over 40 blocks in total and then went back to the apartment.
On my route:
Lincoln Center.
Further down the street and, coincidentally, right where I found a bathroom.
I’ve heard tales of how insanely busy the Whole Foods is at itsColumbus Circle location. I now have proof that it’s true. It’s overwhelming. And irritating. Next time, I’ll go to the one by Bryant Park. Much more civilized.
Don came home on his break and made dinner and then went back to the theater for Preview #3. We’re going to have breakfast at a local diner this morning before he heads to rehearsal. And I’m going to head to the Upper West Side because I love it there. Then home tomorrow. I’m hitching a ride with Doug.
Happy Tuesday.
