I’m staying home, at least for the time being. If I could get to Grand Central, I could catch Metro-North to Westchester County (just north of NYC), where my boss could pick me up every morning. But getting to Grand Central is tremendous “if” because we’ve been completely unable to find a way to make it work.

Jen found a ride via Craig’s List; she walks about a quarter mile to Broadway and Flushing Ave. to meet her drivers every morning at 8am. They’ll drop her off at 34th and Park in Manhattan, from which point she’ll walk to 51st and Lex. In the evening, she’s on her own to get home, but her firm is providing a daily stipend for parking, cabs, or car services, so assuming Jen can catch a cab or car service, that’s how she’ll get home.

To hell with the MTA and TWU for not reaching terms sooner and avoiding this horrific mess.

Boobs and the bird

Another reason I love New York: As nice as the boobs are, it’s the reaction of the guy at the next table…

(If you’re at work, catch a clue from the word boobs, okay? Thanks.)

Cameraphone

If you look immediately below this post, you should see a Flickr image, posted from my cameraphone. (Sorry, JOSH, it’s an image, not a text post.) Yes, after four years with a crappy Nokia straight from the era of Ricardos and Cleavers, I finally have a phone that enables me to take and post pictures, read email, control the Space Shuttle, and perform cardiac surgery.

(By the way, you wanna hear something dumb? My new phone is a Motorola, and one of the ringtones plays this goofy little ditty followed by the voice of some Eurotrash dude going “Hello, Moto.” I think they use this in commercials. Anyway, everytime I hear it, I giggle. Yes, I’m that dumb.)

So, I love having a camphone. Hop on over to Flickr (the image below links to my photostream) and see what I’m seeing.
