10. Driving around in Manhattan (that was a great score Sue! Thx. Lisa!)
"Driving in Manhattan is like a video game except the consequences are more dire!" SYH When I was in the car, I felt it was more like a roller derby...cabs cutting & driver's neither here nor there in committing to a lane!!!
11. Love the regular New Yorkers I came across & interacted w/.....of course, what I loved the most was the forward thinking/abrupt men on the streets [Yeah right! Sickos!]
12. Hanging out w/ my sister, Sue! I especially liked making her lunch & having it w/ her at the office (*after she kept FBing me what ingredients she wanted in her salad....like I don't know!?!! Haha!)...
*What I missed most of course was not being able to see Maddy regain her title of "America's Fastest Chihuahua"! Boohoo...I guess it wasn't meant to be...You're always the CHAMP in my book Momo!
