Stealing Internet and Sharing Beds

We made it, kids. Me and Patricia are currently sitting behind the house on a bench in order to use the internet. Yay for thievery! And Patricia's stubbornness when she heard there was no internet. After roaming around for a few minutes we found salvation.

So here's the lowdown: We live in a basement with 2 women, one of which is Patricia's distant cousin. We will be sharing a twin-size bed for the next month (!) and taking the subway into downtown every day. It's a 30 minute ride, but we got month long metro passes so we can get lost as much as we want and won't have to pay extra as we ride buses and trains aimlessly around town trying to find things to do.

Tonight we saw the Rockefeller Center and strolled down Broadway. It is kind of crazy, what with street vendors and cabs honking and everyone trying to pass each other and tourists taking pictures left and right.

I think eventually we'll feel at home.

Tomorrow me and Patricia plan to see a matinee of RENT (hot dogs for lunch before hand) and then pizza for dinner! Other than that, no clue. We have plenty of time to figure things out, luckily.

The adventure has begun. Pictures will come soon, with any luck.

Love to all!

I'm so jealous. I know you're sleeping in a basement, but I feel like you've finally incorporated yourself into all of the classic New York, big city iconography. You're practically timeless. Now, all that follows is the fact that you're a gorgeous, 20-something blond woman who has slept with half the city (Sex and the City).
