80s new wave

What is it about 80s New Wave? Jenny? You hear me, right? I hope you do.

Morrissey keeps breaking my heart over and over again and makes me believe I am really lucky because I do have amazing people in my life. Take that, world!

And then I thought... ROAD TRIP 2010!!! Whatcha say, ladies?

christmas eve in borough park

If you want to order real lox and not lox spread on a bagel at the bagel shop on 13th Ave. and roughly 48th St. in Borough Park, be sure to ask for sliced lox. Also, I saw a woman enter a shop and fingertip the mezuzah affixed to the door. I had never seen anyone do that before. It is Christmas Eve, and I'm thinking of all of you and seeing us in old women bundled against the cold choosing the best fruit. From my doorpost to yours, love to you all!

LPA

I could watch the old men in headphones conduct the air for hours.

For days, even.

lately, i've gotten this every night.

Salsa Studio

I was walking down Fifth Ave. the other night, listening to music, swinging my arms, and was able to stop and stare for a long while at a second-floor dance studio. I watched couples learning to salsa while I waited for the light to change.

Seeing glimpses into homes, stores, restaurants - I love it.

I wish I had an invisible cloak.

I don't want to be a creep - I just want to SEE EVERYTHING.

I walked for some time, ending up on top of Sunset Park watching the sky turn red behind Manhattan. I could not help but feel a burst of regret about having squandered my time living one block away from the best place to see the night fall.
