recap
I was going to sit here and write out an awesome post on my vacation, but realized it would be far to impossible to even BEGIN to do that. I couldn't do it justice. A week is just too long to cram into a cute little post so I thought I'd make it all ugly like and just touch on some of the highlights.
First off, I'm never going to bring luggage with me again. NEVER. Like maybe a small backpack full of necessities and that is it.
Bringing a warm jacket is imperative. A hoodie just won't cut it, and what was I thinking anyway? A hoodie to wear with a dress? Geez I'm so stupid sometimes. Reason why half the clothes I packed were never worn.
The Chinatown bus to Boston can be fun and easy and cheap and quick, but it is NONE of these things when lugging around luggage (see above).
It rained really hard the first night we arrived in NYC. Caught me totally off guard and got a little soaked.
The subway is so easy to use, I wish we had one here. Our last subway ride was the only one we messed up. First off, they stopped running the A train to far rockaway (the airport train) so we had to do this whole transfering thing, and we got on the train going uptown instead of downtown, but realized it pretty quickly so it wasn't a big deal.
I bought mini skirts!!! and boodie shorts! some cute socks too.
Leslie cracked me up...
Saw Ray and finally met his AWESOME wife. She's a doll. So nice, and real and beautiful. I'm so happy for them!!!!!! Plus she's from SF.
We were in Boston when they were playing the Yankee's for the world series spot. Literally across from Fenway Stadium. People over there are crazy like for sports.
Boston was fun.
After the friday night Interpol/Elephant show we went to this place (can't remember the name) some small club, that was underground and saw Pretty Girls Make Graves. They are awesome. Eric and the rest of the Interpol guys came by later, which I didn't know they were going to, and I got all surprised like. Eric is funny, and awesome but he bites hard! We had lots of random shots, started off with Jager... moved on to a really strong lemon drop shot, and then had some kama kazi shots. OOHHhh I was drinking beer again too. Drunken Amber equals
HUNG OVER AMBER! Oh not fun no, no, no. Espeicially when you have to sit on a bus back to nyc.
Ate at a Roy Rogers. Good fries. Bad BBQ sauce.
Took some pictures, but not nearly enough.
Got to play with TiVo and watch Conan O'Brien (I live in one of those houses that just doesn't get NBC)
I got to see amazing bands put on amazing shows.
Found out people from nyc can't dance for SHIT!
I had a $9 drink. NOT including tip. Needless to say it was my only one of the night, plus a sip off Eric's.
Saw some girl in a mermaid costume in a giant fish tank behind the bar that served the $9 drinks.
Had a good time with a good friend :D
