Today I...

• flew from KC to NYC (LGA=SUX)
• checked into the (surprisingly lovely) Chelsea Hampton Inn
• strolled south: East & West Villages, Chinatown, Little Italy, & SOHO
• was mesmorized by Moss.
• hh'd @ Monster & Stonewall (tres cliche)
• saw (& did not enjoy) Next to Normal (downer story, sour singer) @ the Booth Theater.
• nightcapped @ Gym Bar (loud) AND View (not so much) AND xes (close to home).
