heading downtown on the C train

My camera is all set to take pics of The South Street Seaport.

That's my destination unless I suddenly go off course, and I have been known to do that!

The theme for this weeks Photo Hunt is TIME. I'm hoping to find something (s) for that too.

My Bloglines subscription has me totally teed off. The mobile version is on my laptop and the regular on my Sidekick ID.

The whole purpose of having an ID was so I could read my subscriptions on rhe go.

I am going to reset it tonight. If that doesn't work I will look into Google Reader.

I'm on the D train now heading for West 4th where I will switch for the A.

A tiny new baby is emitting king sized yowls from his stroller. He or she is quite unimpressed with mass transit.

Called my daughter to wish her a Happy B-day. Twenty-five today - wow.

I will be going up one day in May to spend the day with her.

Just made quit an entrance on to the A train. It left the station while I was still standing, and I pirouetted into my seat quite ungracefully.

My new jeans are incredibly comfy though boot style is not my favorite.

They were my size and 75% off - need I say more?

regrouping...

Stopped at one of my favorite places in neighbor for a bit of quiet and a snack.

I've been freewriting a lot the last couple of days.

After I'm done eating and visiting with my favorite waitstaff person - she's a great kid - I am going to write till the pen goes dry.

It was cloudy this morning, sunny this afternoon and chilly tonight.

Welcome to New York

There's an old saying here: If you don't like the weather - wait fifteen minutes - it will change.

Later

lazy afternoon

not much happening

everyone is walking around yawning

there's nothing like sunshine after three days of rain

blogged a bit

may blog a bit more

how are all of you

feeling fuzzy headed today

like the inside of my head is lined with shag carpeting.

Taking manana for myself.

Need a nice long walk with stops to photoblog.

I'm sitting on a Jersey bound bus, and two women across the aisle are working PDA phone keyboards.

I always wonder are they texting or blogging?

Back at you later

on an R train bound for Manhattan

Tonight I dined in Little India aka Jackson Heights, Queens.

The majority of Manhattan's Indian restaurants are for amateurs. Jackson Heights is where you go for the real dealio. My meal included a dosa filled with spicy potato, mulligatawny soup and appetizers whose names I can't pronounce much less pronounce.

My dinner companion was Punjabi and ordered for us in Hindi.

I just sat back and enjoyed the sight, scent and taste of it all.

I have tomorrow all to myself, and there's about a billion things I'd like to do.

Need to narrow the list down just a bit you know.

I hardly got to blog or bloghop today, because some extremely noisy work was being done on our wall.

Everything is everywhere, but we'll straighten it all out on Monday.

Right now all I want to do is go home and soak in the tub.

Afterwards I will catch up on my blogging or fall face first onto my futon.

Any kind of renovation or repair work makes me crazy. I hate strangers wielding power tools in my personal or work spaces. They did do a nice job on the wall. so I will eventually forgive them for all that noise. Jeepers my fillings hurt from it!

One more short stop and I'm home.

Everyone give yourself a great big hug.

Feeling like warmed over leftovers

It's funny Sunday through Friday I can get up any time that I like, and on those days I am up and about by seven thirty.

Sometimes the freakin' laundry is done by nine!

Saturday is the onliest day I must be up early, and my butt is dragging three feet behind.

I have to turn around and yell at it to keep up every few minutes.

Catch ya later.

from NJ to NYC and back to NJ

Yep, I am on a train bound for New York so I can take a subway to the bus that will take me back to Jersey.

It was easier than trying to get from Point A to Point B in Jersey.

I have a German couple to my left, and a woman with two rambunctious little girls to my left.

The older one has the face of an angel, and the younger the eyes of the devil

Back at ya soon.

Nails done finally

I can not remember my last manicure. It must have been a month ago. This morning I decided I could not go another step until something was done.

So now I am tapping out this post with neat looking nails. No polish. With all the time I spend on the keyboard they would be a disaster of chips in an hour.

Kind of tired. Just could not get to sleep last night.

Hopefully the Sandman will get the right address tonight.

Cheerio

coming at you from the GWB

George Washington Bridge

On my way to Jersey.

The river is a bit fiesty today; the water is rocking and rolling.

The bus driver must be a former race driver. Everything outside the window is a blur.

No one is ringing the bell for stops either.

This will be the quickest trip ever.

Everyone have a great day.

blogging over a French Vanilla Decaf

Thank goodness for PDA type cellphones.

I'm sitting here in Dunkin' Donuts waiting for a friend to arrive- she's driving in from Jersey. While i've waiting I sent an email to Heart via MMS, text messaged best galpal and am now posting here.

If you had told me two years ago that I would be ding things like this I would have so wet my pants laughing.

Oh by the way there should be three pictures right beneath this post.

They are costumes from The Lion King.

They are being displayed at the mall in Columbus Circle.

I have to drop by there with my regular digital camera and take some more.

Speaking of my camera it's right in my bag - I was hoping it wouldn't rain.

Looks like my wish is going to come true.

Catch you all later.

Much bloglove to all.
