from here. Just read about a young woman challenging an incumbent in parts of Brooklyn that are in the midst of gentrification. She reminds me a lot of the winner in the Corona House of Representatives primary. Should I pay her more attention---give so money, or some time to her campaign. This is for State Senate. Something to think about. There are so many pertinent events happening in NY at this time, both concerning the city and state, I am beginning to wonder if my "escapist" vision of this summer (or at least a partial one) is valid. More of that to come.
Last night-well, after the late night on Wednesday, found myself tired after the visit to the library where I made my last post. Slept for a while as the day turned to night, then had just a little energy, so any plans to visit either bar in Brooklyn were scrapped. Just enough energy to head to the new Dive Bar on Amsterdam just north of 106th street. They had the Red Sox-Angel game on, so I watched for about a half hour while I nursed a beer. Not much happened, no conversations, but a good way of passing some time. I like that place; it has a laid back vibe. I feel relaxed when I am there. After that, simply grabbed a slice of pizza and went home.
Today is the beginning of a ten day stretch that has the July 4th holiday right in its middle. Have no real plans, though an amazing amount of options exist. Checked out the Dance Nation web site; the $59.00 tickets that I saw available yesterday are no longer there. Looks like I will be going down to the theater about an hour before to try my luck.
Tonight begins with a party at South fourth for my friend Jimmy, the terrific day bartender there. A super guy, very genuine, I hope to "hang out" a few times in the morning while the bar is still opened. Then, cityboy thinks he will take a break from "the horror" that is engulfing us on all sides by watching the first of three Yankee Red Sox games. Unreal, huh? Well, that is the plan, will probably sign in tomorrow with some results and more passions.
