NY Trip 2007!

I had a great time in NY!

I stayed on the upper east side with Andrea. Her apartment is just great. Lisette and Rachel seem to be doing really well, too. They live in a quasi-train car place at 90th and 1st.

We spent a good deal of time doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, which was just what I needed. We walked around to a bunch of the acting studios to distribute post cards for the acting studio for which Andrea works. She was sick for one of the days I was there, so we sat on our butts watching her Tivo and then went to Aces and Eights at 86th and hung out with Beth, Erin, Amber and Toni while Lisette was bartending. Isabelle, Toni's new dog, is really cute.

The exhibit we saw at the Met, Barcelona and Modernity: from Gaudi to Dali, was exceptional. We ate at a cute diner at 57th and Lex (Lexington Candy Shop) and enjoyed a great couple of hours looking at art.

That night we took in Avenue Q, at the kind invitation of Andy Jones, Park's best bud from college who now works for Ave Q. After drinks at the Mariott Marquise, we headed there. The show was a hoot, and afterwards I got to speak for a long time with the illustrious Jen Barnhardt, who's been in the show since it's inception. It was so nice to talk with someone who really has a point of reference for what I do every day. And she's brilliant. And I would love to be in her show, so. . . there.

Friday, I got some coffee, walked around and took a cab to Laguardia, and came home to Atlanta. It was an awesome vacation, just what I needed- time to relax.
