okay, when are you coming to visit?
something i wrote last night:
it's almost 3:00am, and i'm only a little tired. i just got home.
after i got my room settled and took a shower, i made an epic journey
to Josh's neighborhood. probably only 5-10 miles away... it took about
an hour and a half, which i hear isn't normal. i second guessed the
train i got on, got off, waited for the next one. got off at what
would normally be the right stop for transfering lines, but there was
a "service change" and i had to take a shuttle bus all the way up to Nassau.
eventually, I mety up with Josh. when i finally got there, we went and got some delicious and
cheap thai food. i'm talking veggie duck and spicky noodles with
vegetables. then, i crashed at Josh's and took a 5 hour nap
apparently. first he was napping with me. then, he got up and
rehearsed with his roommate/bandmate, liz. he woke me up at about 11
(i was having a dream about driving around looking for eric darst...with
mike?) and we all went out to a bar that with every drink you order
you can get a free veggie dog. word up. so we drank and ate, listened
to the metal band that was playing... they seemed cool enought unti the lead singer did a whole sentimental (sentiMETAL?) speech about how his friend got hurt at a show and how he would drive out 16 hours to play and it sucks when people get their shit beat up... and something about the community... and then topped it off with "if you get it, then that's great and if you don't, fuck off". hipocracy like that just pisses me off. anyway, yada yada, we walked to
Williamsburg and dropped me off at the train. it only took an hour to
get home this time. (woo!) you have to take the L train into Manhattan to
catch the F, which takes me to 7th ave-Park Slope, 12 blocks from the apartment
(that sucked when i was carrying the 2 suitcases). Well, I'm learning to
walk fast and to read subway maps like no one's bizness.
