Back in BrooklynHi! elly & I flew nicely and sweetly on the afternoon Jet Blue flight from Oakland to JFK. It was nice: we watched animal planet, The Daily Show, a story about dams, and an episode of Myth Busters where they made a catapult out of a cherry picker!! NYC welcomed us in all the right ways, replete with crazy cab driver who didn't want to take my route home, took his, and then yelled at me about directions the whole way. Good times! heh. We walked through the dark deserted streets of post-midnight-Wednesday night in Park Slope. I was overwhelmed with feeling, memories, goodness. We went to the park, I got a slice of Pino's pizza (greasy!), and just tried to get our bearings. It feels so right here. The park made for good grounding into this earth, and the Arch at Grand Army Plaza was good for the awe-inducing. Pete & Urcella are awesomely graciously putting us up in the Tuggy Jonez Memorial Suite, and sleep was good. I'm totally wired, and a handful to deal with, I'm sure. Morning consisted of a hug from egg, EGG!!! :) :) :) and a walk all the way down to Naidre's, where we made it to breakfast just in time (breakfast sandwich, crossiant, fakin' bacon, coffee by 1pm), the really nice person there remembered my name and comped our coffees. It's awesome. We also met the cutest german sheppard (maybe?) puppy in the whole damned world. Her name is lily, and I wanted to eat her up!! This town feels like home to me in a way that Chicago never quite did. The family aspect is obviously different, but I really feel like I'm returning to visit a place that I really existed in. hindsight is 20:20, eh? now off to have crazy adventures, and hopefully drink too much! |
