The bus trip to Manhattan was on time and smooth as silk, even with snow blowing everywhere. By the time I started the schlep to the apartment, snow and sleet were coming at me horizontally. A very strange weather day, which, as we left for dinner, ended up looking like this:
Go figure.
We spent the afternoon together and then had a bite to eat with Rick. Then it was off to the theater for Don and back to the apartment for me.
I did not have a good night’s sleep, however. The people upstairs seem to walk endlessly in the apartment and I can hear every heavy clomp of their feet. Even with our white noise machine on. And then, this morning, a truck on the street below started unloading at 6 am. I’m not a happy camper. While I love NYC, having someone above us and noise on the street below is hard to adjust to and I’m never here long enough to get used to it.
But I’m here with my dearest and we’re drinking coffee and all is well. Soon, I’ll get ready for the ‘search.’ I’ll be headed to Macy’s because it’s huge and they have everything there. I’d like to be efficient about the whole thing.
Because shopping is not my favorite thing to do.
Don has two shows today, so it’s a perfect day for me to go off and find something to wear.
Bravo to the students who are walking out of school today for 17 minutes – one for each student killed with an assault weapon.
Bravo to Conor Lamb who won the election in PA last night.
And RIP to Stephen Hawking. Such brilliance is fittingly home again among the stars.
Happy Wednesday.
