TLC takes up too much of my time.


Today was a fun day overall. I was originally attemping to go to the MOMA, Museum of Modern Art and was planning on spending the afternoon there then who knows...well that was fine and dandy until I realized at like 11:30am that it's not open on Tuesdays. Ugh.

So my backup plan was to go to the History Museum which was a good plan until I realized that I wouldn't get there until 1/1:30 and there are four floors and my ticket includes the Space Show so I just didn't feel like rushing. So instead I walked from my house across Central Park stopping here and there to view things...like Cleopatra's Needle...Now Cleo and I have a beef on going because I wanted to see the needle in London and it took me literally about three months to find it and that was purely on accident when my mom was visiting...and wouldn't you know today just randomly walking I happened upon the one in Central Park, it's super close to my house too. Oh Cleo. Oh well. So I saw that and a few other things, I took some pictures but I'm too lazy to try to retrieve them today so you'll have to wait until tomorrow.

After that I did get to see Strawberry Fields, nothing to write home about or blog about.

After that I walked down the park to 6th Avenue/Avenue of the Americas and walked from there to 46th Street. 46th wasn't coincendental...I walked there and down in between 2nd and 3rd to see Spark's Steakhouse. I know I know you're already like what the hell does a vegetarian want with a steakhouse? Well first off, they have fish. But that's not why I wanted to go. It's the restaurant that Paul Castellano was killed at. John Gotti hired a hit on Paul so he could be head of the Gambino crime family and Paul was killed right outside that restaurant! Yay for being a mafia geek! It was cool though and I still want to eat there before too long.

After that I walked back up Lex and then 2nd home. Just hung out for the rest of the day. I'm pretty exhausted now. Walking lots is tiring! So I've been watching lots of TLC. Dang. These Toddler and Tiara people are mental.

I think tomorrow is going to be the Ellis Island/Statue of Liberty tour as the wind is suppose to be minimal which is a good thing for me.

Also today my mom asked if I've lost any weight from all the walking...I'm not sure because this week has been full of Easter candy. I ate the whole bag of peanut butter cups, ugh I want more!! I also have gotten Stuart addicted to Cadbury Mini Eggs, I'm an enabler like that.

Anyway I'm off to sleep. I'll post tomorrow with more pics.

G'nite!
