okay okay sorry. i'm a bad blogger. what did i do that was interesting.
ooh, went to a yankees game w/ dave & raza on saturday, that was pretty cool. it was "old-timer's day" so i got to see reggie jackson, dave winfield, don mattingly, yogi berra, and tons of other yankees lumber onto the field, then the healthier ones played 3 innings against each other. that was neat. then the REAL yankees beat the cleveland indians, and there were some home runs which were exciting, and i had two and a half hot dogs.
dim sum on sunday. justin suggested a place that was WAAY deep in chinatown, much deeper and more chinese than i ever knew existed in manhattan. 88 east broadway, in a mall set underneath the manhattan bridge, where the only white guy in the place was my friend dan. i cannot describe how much more chinesey that area is than the canal st area -- just like a building in hong kong, people selling roots & traditional medicines downstairs, tiny hair salons, duck in the windows, wow! i used to say that i'd miss hong kong, but after going down there i got my teeming-masses-of-chinese fix.
since then, eh, not much exciting going on except for the tremendous disillusionment bryan, michael and myself are feeling after hearing back from an apartment we were looking at (4BR, $1700/mo in inwood!). the guy said that another tenant in the same building wanted to upgrade to a bigger place and so the tenant has dibs on the place now. so we have to start hunting again, argh. i had such plans for that spare bedroom ...
