I'm back from Jersey, and it feels wonderful and melancholy at the same time.
We went into the City on Saturday and saw the Central Park Gates that just got put up. Outside Central Park we bumped into my lovely Suzanne Boltz and Jon Collins; we hung out with them for an hour or so. We wandered temporarily into the Plaza lobby so I could get my picture taken with the picture of Eloise for the 290823 time. But this time was extra special because Suz was in the picture, too. No time for tea at the Plaza on this trip, however. We dashed into FAO Schwarz where Suz and I got hit on by a man/renegade toy soldier. We said our goodbyes to Jon and Suz, and headed down 5th Avenue (one of my alltime favorite streets) towards Times Square and Carmine's, where we had reservations at 2:30.
Carmine's was amazing. We ate and ate. My parents came in from Connecticut, so I got to see them for a few hours, too. We just hugged and ate and I deflected the waiter. After lunch, we headed back to Jersey, where I studied APS and ate Dunkin Donuts and sort of watched a movie. Today we went to church and Jeremy drove down to the shore so we could see the ocean one more time before heading back to cornfields and big skies.
It was so much fun. But I missed Krysten. And Nate. *sigh*
