Just another day in paradise...

There's nothing like being acosted by a butterfly in central park to turn a frown upside down.

This morning was just one of those mornings; the ones where you'd like to just roll back into bed and wait for a fresh start tomorrow. I woke up late, which always throws my day off (and yet I continue to do it on such a regular basis!)

Then I decided because I have already been to Community (the restaurant at which Charlie works, ans the one I was meeting with John for brunch), well I just figured I could find it.

I was wrong.

I got lost, and then, literally out of nowhere, it began to pour. When I finally got to the restaurant, I was soaking wet, covered in bits of the trees I took cover under and 30 minutes late. It would have been enormously comical, had I not been so flustered.

Things immediatly started to look up, brush with John was lovley and Neil Patrick Harris was there, which was my first New York celebrity encounter. It was neat.

After brunch, I needed to unwind... So I walked to the park. As I walked, I began to dry. This park is amazing, I feel so peaceful and pleased with my decisions here. As I walked, the sin came out and filled a little clearing I was standing in, just as a butterfly flew around my head. A little surreal, but it was lovely.

Now I'm sitting on a rock, writing this on my phone as the rain starts up again, but the suns still shining.

Both literally and figuritivly.

cute blog, N.Y. is great when got money for shopping, other wise its too many people,and most people seem to be a little unfriendly and out spoken. I remember the first time I was out there I went with Ice Tea to do a job, I had the best time because we went clubbing. The 2nd time I was working on a wack movie I did with N'Sync ,my asst. got hit by a cab and the cab kept going. It was a foot from me. And the list goes on... each time I go shit happens. love your site ,check me out Kim Lu
