Sunday mornings are best spent around the house

Hanging out with Kevin in NYC on a Sunday morning. We just finished up some breakfast and made our plan for the day. Listening to The Faint while Kevin is in the shower. Surprisingly, I really like it. Looks like we'll be heading out soon to do some shopping and then to see 42nd Street. Tonight after dinner we'll see 8 Mile as well. A day full of media.

Satruday was a very busy but very nice day. To my complete surprise, the weather here has been gorgeous. I was afraid it was going to be chilly but instead it's been nothing but sunshine and just slightly cool. In the morning, we hit the grocrey store in Kevin's neighborhood (after a fabulous pancake and egg breakfast cooked by Kevin himself!). We did meal planning on the way and picked up everything we needed. It was different to be in a grocery store with low ceilings and the aisles so close together. But other than that, it was just your normal grocery store. After dropping off the groceries at the apartment (damn the 5 flights of stairs), we headed back out; first to pick up the mail. We took the subway down to the general area of Kevin's post office box, then walked across Central Park. It was absolutely gorgeous. Picked up the mail - most importantly the tickets for the Broadway show - but also included a bunch of magazines. My new favorite mag is TimeOut New York. I wish Dallas could support such a zine, but, alas, that probably won't ever happen.

After the mail, we spent a couple of hours wandering through Central Park. It was such a beautiful day, there were tons and tons of people out as well as lots of street art, foreign languages, and dogs. Then Kevin took me over to the visual and performing arts library. We borrowed Medium Cool which we ended up watching late last night. It's a very interesting film about a very interesting time in the US. After the library, we went to Canal Street for a little shopping (of course). Then headed back home to grab some food before the show. Last night we went to CB's Gallery to see They. They consists of Danny and Anthony and is produced by Kevin. They put on a very nice show despite being cut off a bit early. Then we had a lovely, lovely meal with Danny, his wife Elyssa, Anthony, and his wife, Amanda. All these people are originally Texans but have settled here quite well. Not to mention they'll all absolutely wonderful people. Dinner wound up and we found ourselves back at Kevin's.

Suddenly it's Sunday afternoon and I had better quit writing cuz we've got places to go!
