New York

I just got back from work at the bookstore, a shift filled with the usual bookstore shenanigans, although much slower than usual. I have a feeling people wanted to experience the nice weather. The place has become much like high school, as I am friendly with individuals but not really part of the group. This feeling is reinforced every Sunday, and it's becoming a drag, as I never liked high school all that much, and I don't want the bookstore to end up being a bad memory for me. I can say for highschool, that I can't say for the bookstore, that I've made lifelong friends. Friends who will quickly bring me back to reality when I'm karping on about this shit.
As for the rest of the weekend, I was able to meet up with Andreas in New York. We did a trip of nostalgia, going to all our old haunts, just like we did 4 or 5 years ago. Back then, when I had just moved from Florida, it was nice being able to experience NY with someone who was experiencing for the first time as well. So, this weekend, we walked at leat 2.5 miles in the city, had a great dinner with some wine, and then went bar hopping. I couldn't find the bar I really liked, but we were able to find suitable alternatives. The first place had a hot bartender, with short black hair. Kind of like an alterna-chick with a hint of Goth, I could go for a girl like that.
Andreas was quite excited about his engagement to Evelyn, which played a large part in our conversation. I got a kick out of him recounting how he proposed and then him asking her dad. I'm really happy for him!
In the evening, the weather was perfect, so we were able to eat outside at Frutti Di Marre, and as it got later, the more crowded it became.
There are so many options of places to go it's overwhelming. New York is the coolest city I've ever been, and while I'd love being around friends in Florida ( a circle of friends, ready to go), I don't know if I can forego the access I have to NY. I really like the northeast, although some parts of Jersey are like Hell, paved.
And, now the week begins.
