listening to stuck in my head: annie lenox - sweet dreams

craving: something caffeinated and something bagelish.

last night: last night was yummy. i stayed at work until nineish, then headed over to krystal’s apartment uptown. it was so good to see her; i hadn’t seen her in weeks and she’s so much fun. she made us dinner - homemade pesto with pasta and tomatoes, and melon afterwords - and we watched the newish version of a midsummer night’s dream. krystal’s so beautiful, it’s amazing. even just sitting around the house, not even vaguely dressed up or anything, she’s stunning. she has these really classical features that make me think of ancient greek goddesses.

getting home was rather hellish. i had expected to just take the 6 from krystal’s to the D at bleecker and from there go straight home, but it didn’t really work out that way. the 6 decided to go express, meaning that it didn’t stop at bleecker. so i revised my plan and figured i’d get off the 6 at union square [which, a few months ago, would have been the end of my journey - i really miss living in manhattan], then take the N uptown a few stops to 34th, where i would change for the D. the N took forever to show up, but it finally did, and i managed not to fall asleep and miss 34th street. what i’d forgotten, however, is that there is no downtown D service from 34th street late night, and by this time it was after one am, which qualifies. i waited for about half an hour before i realized that there was no D coming. so i waited for a downtown F, which i took to west 4th street, where i waited again for, at last, a downtown D. i got home just before three am, set my alarm for six thirty, and collapsed.

estimated hours of sleep: i don’t even want to begin to think about it.

so far today: it’s rather nice out, but i’m stuck inside. blah. i was late to work.

current plans for later today: louis is in the city, so we’re going to go to long black veil tonight, as far as i know.

what else: all the subway hell was worth it, though. it was good to see krystal again.
