a new way of looking at the world

i got new glasses while i was in new york city, which made me feel rather responsible. i’ve been wearing them for a few days to break them in, and i think i like them quite a bit. maybe soon i’ll have a new camera and i will be able to take a picture. i haven’t made that particular purchase yet because being in new york for a week made me freak out a bit in the financial department, and i am still working on my recovery.

anyway, i made it out of the city successfully (after only two wrong turns and a last minute decision to take the lincoln tunnel instead of the gw bridge), and had a splendid last few days. we paid a fortune for margaritas on wednesday, saw a play on thursday, had ethiopian food on friday, and spent the whole afternoon on saturday at the 5 story movie theater on times square to get out of the heat. we bought tickets for a scanner darkly and then also saw little miss sunshine and scoop. it was fun, and then today i saw cars with jen, so i am making pretty good use of this heat wave business to catch up on lost time in the movie viewing department.

tomorrow i’m going to hang out with jen a bit more in the morning and early afternoon, and then head to charlottesville to see jeff for a few days.

it is now ten days and counting until i leave the country.

eep!
