It has been sort of a disappointing weekend. Didn't see fireworks on the 4th.... it was raining on and off all night and we weren't really sure if they were even going to go off.
I did get to hang out with Trent, which was exciting. I broke his Pinkberry virginity and then we went walking through the park. We were going to find a coffeehouse, till I slipped on Park Ave and ripped my pants. (Done the front somehow? Perhaps I can stitch them.) So we had to run to Da Bronx, so I could put on a more appropriate pair. While sitting here, we both got super sleepy and realized we weren't going to make it to a coffeehouse, so we called it a night.
Yesterday Michael and I both had off. On a Saturday! I looked up all kinds of things: the NY Botanical Garden was free 10-12 and the phil was playing on Governer's Island. We missed free admission to the garden by 10 minutes. Which truly wasn't a big deal because then, it started pouring. Again. So we would have gotten like, 15 rain free minutes, had we made it on time. We took a nice walk through the Bronx, found Arthur Ave and got familiar with the buses and where they go. Which was good, because we realized we don't really live far from Arthur Ave at all.
Ended up not going to Governer's Island because, tada, it rained ALL afternoon. And the website said they wouldn't play in inclement weather. It did stop, about two hours before the concert was to start. But we wouldn't have made it, assuming the concert went on.
Instead, Michael made a yummy stir fry and brownies. I chatted with my girls, took silly pictures and video, drank wine, hung out. It was a nice day, even though it didn't go as hoped.
