what the fuck, mate?! It is so cold...merrrr. Something odd came over me last night and I actually went running in this weather. Aside from having to thaw out in front of the heater when I got back, it felt really good. I ran in the financial district, which I figured would have less traffic at 9pm. For the first time I actually saw the world trade center site, I passed so many cute restaurants that I cataloged in my memory for future consideration. I realized how little I have actually explored the city--honestly it's pathetic! Note to self: explore the city. Okay, done.
I took off work today, got some much needed sleep. Running was a good idea if not to get rid of my spare tire, than at least to put me into a deep sleep, something I haven't had in a while. Annoying. My laundry is singing in the dryer right now...my clothing forgot what it's like to be clean; I also plan (plan key word) on cleaning my room which has once again regressed into a state of national emergency. Whatever, tonight is going to be a good night. I've been craving oysters on the half shell for some time, and I'm dragging Michael and any other stranded nyu buddy out to either Grand Central Oyster Bar (heard it was the best, but is unfortunately priced like it) or Pearl Oyster Bar, which is in the West Village. only thing is pearl doesn't take reservations and it's a friday night. I don't really want to be waiting in the cold weather for 45 minutes....BUT maybe everyone else thinks that way too. Dunno....
Mer, i need to shower and go pick up my check from work
