Travels: New York City

Just came back from a long weekend in New York! (No, but really, i got in at 5:30am and went to work and now i wanna die from delayed exhaustion) Around January or February one of my friends posted a status about buying tickets for her and her husband to see The Postal Service perform in Brooklyn in June: immediately after reading her post I bought Tom and I tickets as well! We both had loved Postal Service since their one and only album came out in 2003, & were super pumped to see them in concert because they NEVER tour, like, ever. Ben Gibbard even said at the concert: "This is how you do it future musicians- you put out a record, dont do anything for ten years, and then you'll play at Barclays in Brooklyn" --- very funny & very true.
We have friends living in New York so we decided to make it a weekend long trip (the concert was on friday night.) We boarded the good ol' Megabus (never again) wednesday night and got into Manhattan at 6 am, found our way to Queens half dead, and crashed on our friends' futon until 1pm. The rest of the weekend was filled with great food, drinks, visits with friends, birthday celebrations, & public transportation exasperation. A very busy but very fun weekend! Here are some photos from my phone while I wait for my film to be developed!
