NY D3

Today was special because it is Saturday so that meant that F could spend the morning with me before he had to go to work. We woke up early and went to Grand Central station, which was featured in some weird film F tried to make me watch once but i quickly got bored of.  I think its called Kostynchiwawa or something.  anyway, we wandered around for a bit looking at all of the shops and enjoying the beautiful sunny morning.  We walked through mid-town east and mid-town west and saw all the classy shops like gucci and juicy couture. we had breakfast at tiffany's (well, F had a cream cheese bagel and i had a bite of it) at admired their art deco elevators.  finally we ended up at FAO Schwartz; we were both disgusted by the pink girly sections and disappointed by the size and boringness of it.  but then we wandered into the lower section and the most wonderful thing happened.... we discovered the Make Your Own Muppet section.  i got very excited and wanted to make one but was put off by the price.  My sweet husband insisted i get one and let him pay for it as my "welcome to new york" present.  so i made one.  and she's beautiful.  I named her little me.

While Little Me was being assembled F and i walked around and looked for a lunch place.  we finally settled on a lovely little restaurant somewhere in new york.  i had 1/3 a reuben and a grapefruit juice.  i carried the left overs around with me for the rest of the day.  after lunch F and i hurried to pick up Little Me as F had to hurry off to work and i was going to Brooklyn.

I joined my tour bus (last day!) to do the last leg of my journey.  I got on the tour bus and right away i discovered my tour guide was a moron and knew nothing about Brooklyn.  He spent the whole time practicing various accents and saying things like, So over there are some Brownstone houses.  They are called that cuz they are made of brown stone or something i think.  I dunno, anyways, who cares right?" and to the welsh tourists, "man i love lilly allen!  hey if i go to england can you guys like hook me up?  she so fine!"  it was truly appalling.  the worst thing was, this section of the tour was not a hop on hop off trip.  i had to stay glued to my seat and listen to this trite.

As the day wore on, it became increasingly hot and i began to worry about my sunburn.  i was constantly applying sunblock but i worried that it was not enough as it was truly scortching hot on the open top bus.  as there was no access to a lower seating area i was forced to hide under a pashmina scarf and sweat beads of sunblock while hiding from the powerful sun rays.  i still got burned though, and at the end of the tour my but was dripping wet from sweat, leaving a noticeably wet and heavy mark on my ass.  

finally i am back home though and showered and dry and relaxing.  it is my task to find food for tonight.  i just want to play with my beautiful little me.
