2003-09-29 - 9:42 p.m. I've got a weird little trip scheduled to NYC this week. I could NOT be MORE excited. I'm trying not to overplan. Really really really trying to not overplan. This is difficult for me. I have like a whole list of things I want to do. Want to see. When the truth is. I really just want to pretend that I still live there. For a couple of days. A girl gets damn homesick. Here's my shortlist. --Clearview Beekman on 2nd Ave. -- Fishes Eddy -- Angelika -- Century 21 for new tights -- Nine West Outlet and the store where I used to get long skirts in my old neighborhood. and. This place. I used to walk by that store window alllll the time. Little urchin cubiclegirl with her nose pressed up against the plateglass transfixed by all the colors and glass. (sidenote: I love color glass) And I told myself that when I published a book, I'd come back and actually GO INTO the store (sidenote: big, big deal for me. going into stores. it was YEARS living in nyc before i went into tiffany's and i've STILL never been in saks. class issues much? yes.) and BUY a piece of glass. Now. I'm gonna do it! HA! go me. i'm suddenly really homesick. *sigh* I have to tell myself this doesn't have to be the perfect trip. I think I just want to buy coffee from a sidewalk vendor and walk around in the morning rush hours. there's nothing better than nyc at morning rush hour. I'm such a cubicle geek.
