New York, New York! A hell of a town. The Bronx is up but the Battery’s down. The people ride in a hole in the ground. New York, New York! It’s a hell of a town!
Yesterday I didn't have internet, so here is my entry for yesterday:
Today was filled with a lot of “hurry up and wait” situations. (Which I have a feeling are a common occurrence in New York, what with all the lines and public transportation, etc.) We got to the airport super early, and then after boarding the plane, we waited at the gate for 2 hours while a technical problem was fixed. But alas, we made it finally to my home for the next 48 or so days. We’re staying at the W New York hotel downtown, which is literally RIGHT next to ground zero. I took a video of our view from our room.
After walking around Times Square for a while, we headed to the Golden Theatre to see The Normal Heart. Holy cow. I have never been so emotionally moved by a play before. I found myself weeping several times throughout the play. I recommend it to everyone. And the first chance I get I’m buying a copy of it so I can read it. The writing is so good and incredibly moving and full of truth and raw human emotion and passion and…ugh. I don’t really know what else to say about it because I haven’t fully processed it all yet.
ANYWAY, moving in tomorrow. Can’t wait.
Star sightings today: Patricia Clarkson, Liev Schrieber, Naomi Watts (all in the audience of The Normal Heart)
