First night back out into New York. The weather was really crappy so even though Victor came over really early to get buo-ba, we just ended up staying in and playing games on jippi.com. That site is pure evil. Mindless competitive games that everyone will love. My favorite i think is the trivia game but everything else is pretty darn cool too. Don't go. It's not fun. You won't like it. You won't waste any time there.



We did finally meet up with Leslie, Amit, Karina, Gerard, Vivian and Brian. Got our Saint Alp's and after that we pretty much chilled at a bar (Pop) and then got some food in Chinatown. It was nice to see everyone again but i can't really shake the doomsday feeling of "whoa, this won't happen like ever again!" But that's probably not true because i'll probably visit sometime. I do wish i had more time here in New York but hey, i'm grateful even for this short week. I'm tempted to stay a day longer because Greg got some tickets to an advance IMAX screening to Lord of the Rings on Tuesday (with Ian McKellan hosting) but i feel like it's a test of my responsibility. We'll see what happens.



I do know that trying to catch a cab in New York is damn near impossible when you need one. Especially on the weekends. We stood outside for at least 30 minutes trying to catch Vivian a cab (she ended up settling for a limo) and then in Chinatown it took lots of walking to get our necessary three cabs. It wasn't even like people took our cabs, all the cabs were just full or "off duty." All those movies showing cabs pulling up all the time are flat out lying. Public transportation sucks. Kill the ozone...drive.
