“New York is a friendly town.”
– unknown, but from a postcard I found in SoHo a million years ago that I’ve framed and hung in all of my various apartments here.

I'm curious...
What advice and coping methods do they offer and suggest to people who work in professions that deal with victims of extremely harrowing and traumatic events? I.e. for the counselors and nurses and doctors that are caring for the three women who escaped from Ariel Castro’s home. For the DA that’s been assigned to represent this monster in court.

Today on the UWS
-an old man hauling a dirty rolled up carpet into Freddie & Pepper’s Pizza, looking at the staff then leaving after the cashier says “No thank you.” waving him away. When I give the cashier an inquisitive look he tells me, “He does that every Sunday, I always just say Noo noo!”

Gacne
In the past few days, I got two massive, throbbing zits on my chin, the same side I always seem to get them on. I changed my pillowcase and have been diligent about washing my face with a cleanser.
