Three Things I've Learned About New York

Diary


1. Go before you go, unless you enjoy public urination, which i don't (not that there's anything wrong with it!).

2. Don't speed walk on the metal grates when it's raining.  They're slippery, cold, and hard and the puddles nearby are dirty and wet.

3. If a strangely dressed, sleepy woman with a leathered face asks you the time on the train, ignore her.  If you answer her she will then obsessively ask you every five minutes for the time in what will appear to be an ill-conceived, pathetic attempt at human contact that will make you feel very uncomfortable.
