Right Through the Very Heart of It

(NaBloPoMo 6)
Something has to be said for being able to take in Rothko, Albers, Van Gogh and Warhol, then Puccini's Madam Butterfly at the Met, (so spectacular I cried as soon as the curtains parted and Mme's stunning red kimono rippled out, silk rivers of red, before our eyes) explore a 16-story building full of designer fabric and only fabric, inhale the best deep dish apple pie a la mode in all my 25 years, puddle-jump through The City a la Gene Kelly, (the cabby who launched upon me a virtual tsunami from hip down only added to the experience), watch an early Halloweener-gone rubiks-cube try to fit through the subway, dine on the most delectable burger known to Man in a restaurant only equipped for 19 and chat with the owner while doing so (he wasn't so bad his British self!), feel smaller than a dot, equally as important as one, love every minute of it...and still manage to get the best sleep of my life on an air mattress all within a 24-hour period.

I heart NY.
