NYC Is For Tired Kids and Wired Eyes

Bullet Points to serve our memories only. You, me, and 4410.

Do you remember:

-Bar hopping into every single chair and booth I've ever sat in, as if fate was trying to re-write every NYC memory I have, to include you.

- A stranger involving us in a philosophical discussion about a banana peel on Christopher street. Sally on the floor at Chumley's. (Her feeding time is 11:37.) The "Listen to me" guy at Caliente Cab who couldn't hold onto a napkin... you handle the waiters from now on. Random piles of books on the sidewalk and trying to push each other into cellars on Bleeker Street. Using Lavender Linen spray like mase on my right eye while blindfolded. Stiff-Arming that girl in the lobby as she turned the corner? "Get that smell away from me." Hands in water fountains. Sharing a revolving door.

- The way that the random girl in a summer dress was holding flowers, and leaning against the "Crosswalk" sign, clearly out of place. The infamous danceoff in front of hundreds in Washington Square Park. 2nd place has never looked so cool. Admit it. The guy on the subway listening to Madonna on his I-Pod.. "Holidaaayyy!" Advil and Diet Coke to get you going. "Do you want me to make you a sandwich? I cut my hand carving you a wooden pickle."

- The trash bag clothed man on 8th Ave. Ray's Pizza that we don't even remember ordering. "Grow-A-Girlfriend," "Gay Accent Spray," "Garbage Pail Kids," and "Finger Hooks," .... Oh and those amazing rings that even airport security didn't notice. The amazing magnets you found for Tom and Liz. Mr. Squarepants in the middle of Times Square. Nobody should "weeeee" alone. "How the hell did I turn the sheets blue?" "People With A.I.D.S. Plaza." Buying gifts for friends but keeping them for yourself! 4 old school snow globes. Drinks at Puck Fair.

- "Are you being a good travel companion?" Complaining about a bruise that I gave you while saving your life. Dining at Butter, ordering a grilled cheese sandwich and warm chocolate cake! The party that broke out on the corner of 49th due to the flashing laser lights with crystal NY skylines. The maids leaving our slices of pizza with bites in them. The lack of trash cans.

It all started with an unexpected limo ride and a room with a great view, at the top of the city. It all ended with me wanting to do it all over again... but only if you're on my arm.
