well, its my third or so day in new york. the last time i was here was last summer, i want to say july 15-22 but that could just be speculation. it's been an adventure so far. i was picked up by edgar (my parents "driver") from the airport. i dropped my things off and then met my sister mary and my cousin brooke in the city for some indian food from a street car. or whatevs. then i wandered around the area of mary's work.   not full from the indian food, i ate some chipotle while reading. then i went to a starbucks to read where a creeper man who brought his business check books SLASH homeless bags was staring at me from across the table. new yooooooork.
then mary and i walked from 52nd street allllll the way down to 157 houston, which is like i don't know 70 BLOCKS slash a million. i thought i was dead by the end of it. oh yeah, i hadn't slept the night before. so.... we saw the movie the tree of life which i think got bad reviews but was actually a very beautiful and very visual movie. there were definitely areas that could have been edited more, cropped out even, because much of it was repetitive but boy oh boy it was a sight to see. then i ate pickles and read and slept. the next day mary and i had to ourselves, which was yesterday, so we woke up, ate brunch at the lodge (very fun but unfortunately hipster as all things in williamsburg are) and then decided to go see thor. all the lines were screwed up (new york metro really needs to get its act together on the weekends) but we ended up going to the theater in times square (because "there aren't going to be any bed bugs on the seats" -mary). thor is great. i love thor. he is funny and hot.
then she and i walked to one of the very few taco bells in manhattan. then we went home and i read and slept AGAIN.
today we went to church. it was kind of awkward. men were polite to us and a crazy woman sat across from me and stuck knives in her syrup bottle. then mary and i watched archer and america's next top model while eating mac and cheese and brownies. we unpacked most of my things and now... now i am tired and will read and sleep. as you do.
