Where does the Time Go?

Seems like it was just yesterday I was sitting here writing away about Westphalias and bad cell manners and then poof (and I am not talking about me) it is a week later.

Well, little and much has happened.

My 33rd birthday came and went like a flash. Sad to say the work day was bad on that Wednesday, but the evening more than made up for it. A very nice dinner and for those who know me I don't eat a regular dinner that often. More the late night eater; being the night owl that I am.

But EJ took me to a very nice restaurant called Hearth on 12th Street and First Avenue. Great food, had the Quail appetizer and the Lamb entree both were great. Oh and should you go get the Pureed Sweet Potatoes. I sampled first and remarked that the were like warm baby food, but in a very good way, never have I had something smoother in my mouth....wait, what? Well, anyway, they were great.

Then off to Ruby Lounge on 2nd Street between Avenue A & B. Very cool, mixed group, not many people on a Wednesday which made it quite nice to sit and talk and relax. Oh yeah, check out the bathrooms, many hot things to check out in there.

I was quite thankful for such a peaceful evening. This coming from someone who doesn't ever do much on his birthday, it was nice to have friends who wanted to make something of it. I thank you.

So this little message is being brought to you courtesy of Grounded. A very cute little organic coffee and tea house at 28 Jane Street. Stop on in. I would have their website listed but it is not up and running yet, but I will give the link anyway and maybe they will put something up soon.

Just had to be noted.

So if you were in NYC for the last 2 days you may have seen the news about the Eastside madam who was arrested Monday or Tuesday. Funny thing is they arrested her at her apartment which happens to be across the street from me.(#2 in picture above). Now if you remember from a few weeks ago Governor Spitzer resigned his office and that is also just caddy corner to my building over on 3rd avenue.(#1 in picture above). There is word that this Madam had the black book that had the former Gov. and many others in it. She says she doesn't. I guess we will find out. Funny to to me though that in the picture above he basically could have walked over with a nice appointment after he resigned just a half a block away. PS: Was in a hurry to post so don't yell at me for the crude numbers on the pictures. Haha.

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah......

We were standing at that sign for a few minutes trying to figure out how to say it and then why someone would make the obvious mistake and not fix it eventually. This shot was on the way to my friend Everett's bday party out in Astoria. It was a train ride and a bit of a walk and no friends showed up, I would have killed them but we had a good time anyway. I went out with my friend Steve and we met up with Jorge and his hubby Steve. I wrote about the event a bit ago. These are the Hell Gate Social pics.
