A blog about New York City, my books, and my cats. Mostly.
More and more Halloween decorations are starting to appear in my neighborhood!
“Don’t let the bastards grind you down.” I’m trying!
A true tableau featuring scary black cats would show one horking on your bed, or how your stomach is just one stop along the way as they practice their parkour skills up and down your apartment. My cats would shred these bats and eat the spiders.
Aliens like to visit around Halloween, disguised as ghosts.
Gilbert Gottfried made a surprise appearance at the Loser’s Lounge on Friday night and sang a song. He seems sweet. And he has two adorable children.
I don’t know when I took this, but it was misfiled and I just came across it. God I love a good snow storm. This is the street where I live. Simply looking at this scene makes me happy.
Except I just realized this might appear insensitive to the people facing Hurricane Michael today. The storm in this picture is the kind you can easily escape from, and actually makes you feel safe and warm and protected. Mostly. Hurricanes, not so much. I hope the destruction from Michael is minimal.
Here’s my view getting off the subway and heading towards Broadway and Grace Church, for choir practice. Rather chaotic, isn’t it? The stop is Union Square and a fire truck was heading towards a fire just as I snapped the picture. I’ve indicated Grace Church with an arrow.
In a few minutes I’m going to head out to the IRT up to 42nd Street to wait for the Q. This is my view every morning, while I wait. (It’s very early, that’s why it’s not crowded.)
