Jenny and Melissa came up from SC to visit for the week. We had a ton of fun. Yeah, there was a lot of transit mishaps, but everything else was great.
They were supposed to fly into NYC and get to my place by 11:30pm on Wednesday, but because of a plane delay, the subway running really slow, and the conductor telling them the wrong train to get on, they didn't arrive to my place until 3am (1 plane, 2 taxis, 2 subways, and 2 trains later).
I had to work on Thursday and Friday while they explored the city, but Friday night, we were able to go to the open house at my work where they had a thousand people from the city looking at our new green building. There was free food, artwork, and live jazz with a 9-year-old drummer. All very suave and rich, but it was fun. Then we went out for frozen yogurt and watched Hot Fuzz.
Saturday, after checking out the farmer's market in Union Square, we went to a Broadway Musical called In the Heights with Jordin Sparks (solo clip of her in the musical) from American Idol. The story was okay, but the singing and dancing was great. Very talented people. We all really enjoyed it.
We went to Hard Rock Cafe for dinner and went downtown to the Laugh Lounge for some live comedy. The MC and the first comedian were starting out pretty rough, but Lee Camp was hilarious as always. We had to leave early to catch the 11:11 train back to NJ, but the F train was unexpectedly down, so we ended up missing the train and having to take the 1:20 train. So we got back around 2am and had to get up at 5:30am so they could catch their cab to LaGuardia. Transportation was just bad this week. But everything else we did was tons of fun.
