Crazy Times Square.

Despite my recent unemployment, I still went on the New York City trip I had planned and had an airplane ticket bought back in March. I had a fantastic time! Exhausting of course. I tried to fill every hour with something so it all felt worth it. My first day there, I was awake for 23 hours because I had to get up at 2:30am to catch my first flight. One must experience the night life (comedy clubs, in my case) when in NYC!

My first day, I went to the Museum of Sex. Very fun and informative! Went to the Broadway Comedy Club that night. My first day, and I saw a 3-legged dog, tons of people wearing leggings (ew!), street and subway performers, and a girl named “Bermuda”. Second day, I took a bus tour and later visited the King Tut exhibit. I was mad because it appeared his mummy would be there – but it was a replica! Lame! Still cool to see all the real artifacts. Walked up and down Christopher Street, but sadly did not see any drag queens. Plenty of gays though (or Europeans, it’s hard to tell). Haha! Went to the Comedy Cellar that night.

Love the hilarious subway performers.

Naughty Picasso! I approve.

Third day, I took another part of the bus tour. Went to the Central Park Zoo, which was cute. Had my hot dog from a vendor in Central Park! It’s just not a visit without doing that. Then I went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Amazing! There was a big Picasso exhibit, which was quite enlightening. Turns out he was a dirty, dirty man, which I very much enjoy. It’s like he knew me! While at the museum, I had to check out the arms and armor room (gorgeous), as well as the real Roman statues and Greek art. And of course, I would find pieces of art that I don’t think were meant to be dirty, but I found them dirty. Especially fun among the religious art. Comedy Cellar again that night to see Dave Attell, who I have seen on every trip now!

Lots of pics and a couple videos on my Flickr!
