Insta Friday
This week was bonkers.
My BIL and his buddy came to visit for 2 days.
We smooshed as much NY as we could into 48 hours.
I forgot how tiring it is to be a tourist in this city!
So without further ado, what I did this week according to my phone pics.
Hubs and I went to one of the free concerts in Central Park. We were dumbies and waited until a scorching 98 degree day. But it was really fun.
We got there early and had a little picnic in the park. We people watched and were excited for the show to start. Mostly because I was complaining about the heat. I am NOT an extreme weather person. Hot and cold makes me stabby.
Lots of people were crowding in and JUST before the concert started….
… these tards sat their happy asses 10 inches in front of our blanket. Um excuse me but did you get here 2 hours before the start of the concert? NO. so move your happy asses to the back. You don’t get a pass just cuz you’re old.
We really picked a shitty spot because not only were the old idiots in front of us, but we had gossipy girls, about 2 bottles of wine in, surrounding us.
Gossipy Girl #1: “Like, OMG, if you aren’t gonna text me than don’t tell me you are. Like, you know what I mean?
Gossipy Girl #2: Thats like so rude!”
It took all the power in my body not to turn around and say “drink and gossip at home like normal, wine drinking, gossipy girls! idiots!”
I mean come on. This is the mother effing NY Philharmonic. If you don’t want to listen, why are you here? To feel the thrill of drinking wine in the park and not getting ticketed? What is the point?!
So, obvs I was pissed by this. Which also cements the fact that I am getting older. Cuz normally wine induced gossiping is my second job.
But there is a time and a place people.
So, moving on. Like I said my BIL was here for a few days. We never get to see BIL mostly because he is traveling the world or working his buns off 95% if the time. So it was nice to have him around for a few days.
We took him on a fast and furious tour of the city which included McSorleys. I love having visitors because its an excuse to go to this bar. Its allegedly the oldest bar in NY and it shows.
We also went to the Met. I dragged the boys through the modern art exhibit just to see this one painting. This dude is freaking amazing. Chuck Close. Do yourself a favor and google him.
You can thank me later.
