yeah, so it's the adidas building. so what. still cool. and it's a good motto to keep in mind when driving in new york city.
observe:
what's wrong with this picture?
that's right, e-audience. two one-way signs, pointing different ways, on one street. what a country!
in other news, i saw mike palin speak:
so good! he's hilarious. i would also have bought his book (and gotten a signature) if it wasn't $30. jerks.
grand central station.
it's still completely surreal to me to be here, living in a place i had only heard about. mostly, it's hot and crowded. i'm not taking advantage of much of the 'scene' and the good restaurants, and everything costs too much money. more on all this later. it's going to be an interesting summer, if nothing else.
the work part is actually a lot easier to adjust to. all the news service people are very nice and the office environment is nice. i don't get my own desk because the established ones are reserved for the people who have been there the longest, so i have to switch every day. that just means i don't have a place to put my visual dictionary. sad. i've already edited a bunch of stories, more than the metro or national editors do in several nights. now i have to figure out a way to get clips to send to dr. trayes from bootcamp. oh, dr. trayes. i do hope he's having a lovely time at his summer home in martha's vineyard. jerk. hope he packed his visor-- "no!" -- green eye shade.
