Times Square makes me dizzy.


For 10.5 years, I worked in the heart of Times Square.
And for 2 years, I lived there--just west of all the madness.
The energy there is frantic.
And it's even worse at night.
And even MORE frightening when you have vertigo.
This picture captured what it feels like.

GRACE


Went to see an outstanding play on Broadway tonight:
GRACE by Craig Wright
(at Cort Theatre)
Only 4 actors: Paul Rudd, Michael Shannon, Kate Arrington and Ed Asner.
Fantastic writing.  Fantastic acting.  Fantastic production.
A rare treat in NYC.

Keyboard


I had to buy a keyboard today
I'm learning a new piece of music--
a throwback to another time in my life
It was very nostalgic
And very SCARY
My fingers remembered how to play a little...
That was the scariest part of all.

Flares & cones in front of theaters


I went to a show tonight in midtown.
They had flares set up right beside orange safety cones.
I thought something must have happened.
But I'm told that's a "new thing"
A way to clear the area in front of the theater
And I noticed cabs utilized that space to drop off patrons
Strange
And frightening.
