life in clifton
Well I'm back from the big city with plenty to tell so I'm gonna do it in small doses so I don't lose ya. First my flight was delayed in Rochester for five hours. That made us miss our show but I heard so many stories of people saving for trips that they were going to miss that I thought my situation isn't all that bad. I met a lady named Mae while I was waiting and we shared a cab into the city. She had just finished getting radiation for cancer this past winter. So that was a gift(meeting her I mean). When I got off the plane and saw Tara I was literally awestruck. She looked so glamourous. Now how can I put this? All weekend long I found myself thinking she is really worldly now. She reminds me of what I know of Tim's transformation when he left home and hit the Big Apple. Every experience to him was a thrilling adventure. It just seemed like Tara was literally following in his footsteps. I absolutely felt his presence. Tara knows what she wants and she has the confidence to get it. It was fine by me that we missed Ave Q. It was a priceless time just seeing Tara. I'm not sure how I did on my test but it definitely wasn't easy. We'll see. Oh Friday we finally ate at 11:30 at the Japanese place where you take your shoes off and cook your food. The one disturbing thing was that they only had chopsticks and I ate my tossed salad with them. It was a fun experience. Nice because if I had the option I'd eat with a fork. I could almost hear Tim say, " No, you gotta eat with chopsticks to experience it fully. By Saturday I was relaxed and absolutely enjoyed the day. Ok I'm trying to get caught up on some stuff so I'll write later. It is absolutely a Good Day To Live, MacDougal!!!!!
