cat whiskers and cookie paws

Went to see Fela! tonight on Broadway. Mick Jagger was there. In the audience.

That is all I have to say about that.

In other news, I wish it weren't so cold. Or that this trip was a fall thing because wandering around NYC right now is like running in giant wind tunnels. It's exhausted. And yes, I am writing this at 3 in the morning. That's what I get for napping I suppose.

Tomorrow we are heading to Astoria (Woohoo!) to the Museum of Moving Images. I'm not entirely sure what to expect, however our film teacher Alan is awesome. He used to go to Coe and actually went on the NY Term as well!

More news: I applied to work in the Writing Center over the summer. After New Zealand of course. This would mean free housing on campus and $1500 in my pocket. I'd have to buy food but after NY, I certainly know the way to save. I could easily walk to Hyvee on 1st Avenue. I could also get a job at one of the local restaurants or cafes! This is probably a pipe dream. I don't even have the job yet secured and am not sure I'll be the lucky consultant to get it. (I would DIE to write the Writing Center summer news letter!)

I suppose I should sleep.

Today is technically Friday which means...NEW YORK TOMORROW.

Things I still need as today progresses: finish doing laundry so that I can finish packing my clothes, find the lint brush, find the umbrella and jacket in a packet, find appropriate shoes, go shopping for groceries, and sleep more. I definitely need to get my normal sleep pattern back. I don't know how I'll make it through the next week if I don't. (Point in case: it's past three in the morning right now and I'm barely tired. I suppose I should just make myself wake up very early so that I'll get tired sooner. Or whatever.)

Enough rambling for now. Onwards and (hopefully) upwards.
