I don’t know what it is with me these days. My Friday night has become my Sunday, my day of rest. I have no desire whatsoever to go out. Only a Catherine Maladrino sale could rip me from the grips of my apartment. I suppose that’s what drawing and chick flicks are for. I’ve begun to despise Sundays. Sunday in Manhattan means a park. It means couples and babies, and runners, bikers, and tourists in carriages. I fcuking hate Manhattan Sundays. They depress me. Maybe I’ll Long Island it on Sunday. So I can avoid crap ass overcrowded central park, and the couples, and strollers, and dad with kid on shoulders site. Oh god, I hope it rains. Sunday in Manhattan with clouds, movies, and Barnes and Noble… now we’re talking. Because you can’t when it’s sunny out. You just can’t. Though that’s what I want. I want rain, and blank notepaper. I want to read home decorating magazines, take notes, and plan menus. I don’t want the fcuking crap ass park. I think I said that already. I obviously have thoughts on the matter.

…Go to Barnes & Noble.
Find a good book beyond the self-help aisle.
See The Notebook with Monique.

  1. My thoughts exactly!!!!! I thought I coined the phrase "crap ass park". Too funny, too brill.

  2. Go out on the water – get a boat or a dinghy and some friends and go motor around, go fishing, jump off a few bridges and pick each other up!

    At least, that's what we do in Norfolk for fun.
