Sunglasses & Fedoras, it's all part of NYC...

Because it's Little Italy, Chinatown, Brooklyn... BECAUSE IT NYC! Favorite things about NYC: Museums Art around every corner... & it's not always in a museum Cute and quante stores Unique restaurants Trixs to know about the city You can be or do anything you want to do So yesterday was pretty fun for me :) and it didn't rain, so all the better. What I recommend: 1. Get your bike from an actual bike shop. Why? They no more about bikes then you do... and on top of that, I had no idea you could get so in-depth with bikes. Get battery operated flashers, don't just depend on reflectors. You'll also want a water bottle holder. Another thing, get a bike from your local bike dealer. He or she will be familiar with the area you'll be in, and therefore can recommend what will be best for you. Here's some helpful brochures. Ian at the bike shop was really helpful and suggested them for me. The one on the left is a map for all bike lanes in NYC

Do cats really land on their feet?...

So this blog is a little off the beaten path from what I usually talk about, but I didn't sleep at all last night cause of it... and I would like some input. First though, just a little recap of my latest adventure... sorry no pics today :( Like I've told you before I live in Yonkers. Where this town ends and begin, I have no clue??? Everything just merges together. You could send me to a certain part of this town, and I'll assume I'm still in Yonkers. Of course we all know this'll change with the more I become familiar with it. Anyhow, my roommate was sweet enough to show me a few things about the area, but first you need to understand that she is a fitness instructor.... she teaches Yoga, Zumba, Cycling, etc... the woman's in shape. So yesterday we made it a point to go cycling at 9. The plan was to leave here, cycle together to her gig, and while doing so she would point out some things about the city... like where to go, whats good, whats where, etc. R

This ain't Texas...

Toto, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore. Zoo York is an understatement. Zoo's are organized and separated. This place is more like Chaotic New York, but then again that doesn't flow as nicely and there for not nearly as many tshirts would be sold... if any. Where I live: Yonkers, NY. Today I got to do something I've always wanted to do... go jogging in the city. I really do love the city, and if I ever come back to Texas it'll be for these reasons: 1. I want space 2. Tired of paying for so much 3. Sick of seeing trash everywhere I look... this really is a dirty city. But seriously, it's so gorgeous up here it'll take a miracle to get me bk in Tx. Now for pictures... There is green everywhere. My apt is on the left. This is what I thought to myself today... Ever wonder why the bad guy (in movies) doesn't realize he's being watched or followed? I think I know why, there's cars lined up the street everywhere. N
