So. What have I done lately?

Well, I went up the Empire State building and took pictures of unsuspecting tourists.





And while I was up there, I took a couple of pictures of the city. It seemed a shame not to.

Where have I been?

That's really none of your business. Suffice to say that they let me out.

Now. Here are some pictures I took before I went inside.

niagara, E7 and Ave A

East 7th St. and Ave. A.
There used to be a club called A7 on this corner back in the Nineteen Eighties. A band called Ism wrote a song about it, and it was the B-Side for their cover of the Partidge family song "I Think I Love You", which featured a picture of two fornicating monkeys with the faces of Shirley Jones and David Cassidy. That was very amusing when I was 15 years old.

It's Fleet Week!

Sorry for my lack of posts in the last month and a half, real life prevented me from running around and taking pictures. I don't imagine anyone was particularly bereft.

Anyway, sailors!

If I was a man this would be so much skeevier...

But I am a nice middle aged lady (a mom, even) so my intentions are completely pure.

At the time, I cursed that cyclist for ruining my picture...

But now I think he is the best thing about it.

New Yorkers may wear a lot of black...

... but that does not mean they are afraid of a little color.
