I'm sorry I didn't post yesterday. I am on vacation at the beach house and we had a bonfire last night so I was going to post this morning but we walked down the beach and skipped rocks instead.
Priorities people. I suck at it. But I am trying to get better.
Anyway, last week I was in New York and I was rushing to get from my office, to pick up lunch, to grab a cab to get to the airport in time for my 4pm flight.
As I walked the 3 blocks to the sushi place I heard screaming in front of me.
It wasn't the kind of screaming I'm used to - kids playing and driving each other crazy - it was the kind of strung out screaming you hear on cops.
As I got closer I could see a woman screaming at a man who was trying to walk away from her.
"Why don't you worry about your own self and let me worry about me?" he asked her calmly.
"At least I sleep with MY husband!" she screamed back. "I sleep with MY husband every night!" she hollered at the back of his retreating head.
He'd had enough. He whirled on her, "No you don't! No you DO NOT!" he objected. "Because he's in JAIL!" he added for everyone in a 1-2 block radius to hear.
She was UNDAUNTED, "For now!" she hollered back, "FOR NOW!"
He just shook her head and darted into traffic to avoid her.
Only in New York.
P.S. I got the sushi but the 90 degree cab ride took 90 minutes and I missed my flight. I sat at JFK and at the cooked sushi (shrimp tempura, soft shelled crab) but decided to pass on the raw fish.
Lol. I miss New York. Always entertaining, never surprising. Good choice about the sushi. JFK would be one of the last places I would dare eat sushi - right before the grocery store.

The noise is one of the things I love most about NYC- especially the random conversations you get to overhear.
