laundry/garbage day
You can always tell when it’s garbage day in new york city–besides the heaping piles and bags of garbage on the sidewalks, it also stinks like sewage when you walk down certain areas. lovely. at least now that we did our laundry though, our clothes don’t smell bad.
This weather here is killing me. I mean it wouldn’t be that bad if we had a car with air conditioning, but when you have to walk everywhere and take the train (thank God the subway cars are air-conditioned.) it really takes a toll on you. The underground stations are kept a nice 90-something degrees, with no air-flow at all–just stale, hot air. Even with the trains kept cool, the time between trains & between stops, and the long walks around town get ya good–you’re guaranteed to be drenched in sweat by the end of the day. And it doesn’t cool down at night. Give me the dry, 100 degree California weather any day over this. Maybe Candice and I should have come out to visit before in the dead of summer instead of springtime. 😉
I’ve got to get to bed early tonight so I can get to my interview in time tomorrow morning in Manhattan. It’s with a company called NIT Connect. We’ll see how it goes tomorrow…

Well….nighty nite and good luck! I think to luv NY you need to live in Manhatten! hehe! Be Donald Trumps neighbor or something like that! I dunno….I know I would prefer WA state over the humidity. I have friends in the New England states and I like the countryside there, but hear the humidity sux there also! So here I still sit in Butte County! hahaha

So good that that dishwasher is going in, and new paint, and new floors. Is there room there for a car? Where do people park? Where is Astoria? What is the zip there if I was looking it up on the map?
Is there air conditioning in the apartment?
Love you both.
