7 Years in Babylon

This week I have lived in New York City for 7 years.

5 things I love:
The Anonymity – You’re never more alone than in a crowd.
The Randomness – I saw a pantsless tranny santa dancing in the street. Yesterday.
The Community – No matter what you’re doing, someone else is doing it too.
The Hours – I am now incapable of living somewhere that I can’t get a taco at four in the morning.
The People – Like living in a library filled with biographies.

5 things I hate:
The Seen-it-all – Too much time seeing random tranny santas really kills your sense of wonder.
The Inability to Get Out – There’s no horizon, literally and figuratively.
The Competition – No matter what you’re doing, someone else is doing it too.
The Money – This place makes you value it more than it deserves.
The Man Made World – Even the parks are designed.

  1. Told you that I would peep your website. Keep on keeping. The saltwater misses you, and yes I do live in Port Townsend, it’s official– more on that later. I hope my post draws all kinds of booking agents out of the work, serious. A note to booking agents people in the land of entertaining. I know this guy and he is completely worth your investment. Need I say more. (What up Ken-Doppler)
