Harvest Moon

I enjoyed my only day off today people watching for the most part. I hung out in Williamsburg aka hipsterville. I'm not complaining. I liked the people I met or observed from a distance (creepy?) I sat at a cafe for a while and then made my way to a park to lay in the grass and read my book. By the way I'm reading A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius by Dave Eggers right now and I must say it's an amazingly written book. I love his style of writing. He goes on a few tangents that last way too long that get pretty dry for me but all in all it's a very very good book and I think whoever is reading this blog should go buy it and read it if they have not yet.

Anyways, met up with Karl at Union Square and walked to the bar he works at to drop off some keys and have a beer and eat some food. Great beer, Great food. Then went back to his apartment to enjoy the harvest moon on the roof and drink more beer. But there were huge cockroaches that decided to join us as well so we went back inside. The rats I can handle. I see a rat on the sidewalk and it doesn't phase me but the roaches man, GROSS.

I hope you all enjoyed the moon as well.

Dude, I so can't handle the rats. I can deal with the roaches. I am so grossed out by rats and mice it is unreal.

We were there visiting my sister this past weekend and I had to change Finn on a park bench on the corner of 7th and Avenue A and there were rats EVERYWHERE. Ugh, so terrible.

We changed him on many park benches but that was the only really eventful one.

When we were there 2 years ago we were laying around in union square park waiting for my sister to get done with school (at the new school). I sat up to get something out of my bag and a rat RAN RIGHT OVER WHERE I HAD MOMENTS BEFORE BEEN LYING DOWN.

I am SO not over those two ratty events.
