Important Question of the Day

When planning what to pack for a 4 day trip to New York City, how many pairs of shoes should one take? 6 or 8?

    Pack fewer -- It will give you an excuse to buy some while you are there.

    gayprof: Good point! I hadn't even thought of that. No wonder you are the Towering Pillar of Knowledge that you are!

    Yes, bring one pair and then go to Century 21 (near the world trade center site)to buy more. Best shoe place I've ever been to!

    Only 8? I'd go with 10 if i were you. You know, just in case...

    "Just in case what!? There's a shoe eating monster in (insert place name here) who intends to kill you on the spot, and will only be pacified by an enourmous meal of shoes!?"

    Ha, boyfriends. They think they're SO funny.

    one to walk with and one to go out and lots of cash to buy more shoes.. remember there is 0% tax on anything less than 100$ in NYC..

    I might have 6 pairs of shoes. But if most of them are "sneakers" does that count? I bought some dressier shoes recently thinking that I might get a new job that required better haberdashery, but the job fell through. So now I mostly switch between two pair of sneakers.

I'm Back (from Vacation)

 I'm back. I will be posting about my vacation soon.  Well, soonish ... maybe this weekend.  I dunno. Also, I came back to a big pile of stress at work.  Good times. Can I go on vacation again?  (Why, yes. Yes, I can.  I'll be flying to Atlanta for Pesach.  Just the weekend.  Not the whole dang thing.  My body needs gluten. And, then, a quick trip to NC in early May to see the 'rents.) ANYWAY.  Israel and Latvia posts coming up. Stay tuned. Or just look at the pix on my IG. *hugz*

If We Took a Holiday ...

 Happy Presidents' Day! Since I last posted, so much has happened ... I think.   I was going to bake my parents heart-shaped biscuits, because -when we were wee lads- my mom used to bake my brother and I heart-shaped biscuits on Valentine's morning.  They were not as good as the biscuits I make now. However, after I grated the frozen butter in my food processor, I tipped it out into the flour and the handle on the food processor broke.  The bowl fell into the flour.  I dug out a few pieces of plastic and a spring, and I threw it all in the trash.  I called the manufacturer.  They are sending me a new bowl ... in 2-3 weeks.  UGH.  HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE BISCUITS NOW?!?!? The SigNoth caught a cold, so Valentine's Day was even more of a bust.  Not that I really buy into the whole pseudo-holiday thing anyway. Saturday, I did my taxes. Refund, yay!  And, I ordered some nice stationery.  I thought it would be fun to use my fa...

Too Early But Not Early Enough

 6:00AM. With the new normal, I should be on a bus to the metro station, where I board a train and then another train to arrive at my office bright and early and chipper as a newborn squirrel. Today is special, though.  It's Pottery Class Registration Day.  Which is surprisingly competitive.  The DMV has too many Type A Soccer Moms (and Dads). In order to register for class, I have to log on at 6:30AM and hope the Pottery Gods are kind to me in the registration queue.  We shall see ... so exciting. After I register, I will then board a bus and a train ... and another train to get to my office.  Depending on what time I arrive, I will either work late (ugh) or take some leave (also, ugh).  Being totally honest, I will more than likely take leave because I hate being at work late.   This would be a perfect day to telework.  If we were allowed to telework.  Too bad Danger Yam (as one of my mutuals calls He Who Must Not Be Named) thinks...
