Next weekend Andreas and I are going to New York. Dre has never been, and since I’m making the big bucks at work right now and jetblue is so cheap, I decided to get him a weekend trip as a Christmas gift. And so, off we go on a red eye flight next Friday night.

We’ll be staying with my friend Terra, and spending lots of time with her and Megan. We’ll be seeing a show, eating good food, debauching, and wandering the streets. Scott will be coming up from DC, and perhaps bringing our beloveed Ashley with him. I’ve got a face-to-face meeting with the folks at my lit agency on Valentine’s Day. If I got everything I ever wanted, I’d find a way to hump Choire’s leg while we’re there. Wouldn’t that be fun?

I’ve got a curious relationship with Manhattan, but it’s been over three years since I last visited. We’ll see how I’m getting along with the city these days.
