Heading off to New York for a few days - going to catch my cousin Aja's wedding in Queens and bum around Manhattan for a couple of days before & after. I've been insanely busy trying to close off work to the point that it was possible to get away, and now I realize I haven't really mentally prepared for the trip.
Not that New York needs a lot of prep work - the city's always on enough of a slow boil that you're bound to stumble into something weird and interesting if you keep your eyes open. I keep telling myself I'm going to move back there someday. But I don't want to do that right away - I have an intuition that if I go back, I won't ever leave again, and there are other places I want to see first.
2am wakeup call... Must start packing.
