Halloween, only a week late.

The Saturday before Halloween we went to a party.

It was not a fun day, and we almost didn’t go to the party. I made these puppies, from scratch.

We went though. I was crabby and tired and not happy and I feel bad. We could have had a good time, but I was just not having it.

The cups came out cute though, no? Folks liked them, I heard.

We’re back from New York. It was wonderful.

Last night we went for Lebanese. We had lots of lamb: We had the lamb sausages for an appetizer, then both had some variation of lamb for dinner. It was very good.

After dinner we headed to the NYC Comedy Festival to see Denis Leary. He was fucking hysterical. (You have to use the word fucking when you’re talking about Denis Leary. No, really. You do.) I actually think though that one of the other comedians was funnier, buuuuut I don’t have the playbill and can’t find his friends online. It was NOT the guy that talked about disgusting sex acts and thought it was hysterical.

This morning I went out and got us breakfast and took some pictures. We went and watched the Veterans Day Parade. I’m glad we went to that. It was less about entertainment and more about remembering and honoring our veterans and those who currently serve our country. It was touching and I actually found a lump in my throat at some point. Going to a parade just doesn’t seem to do the sacrifices justice.

We moved on from there to go see some wax! I had never been to Madame Tussaud’s before. It was fun. We were hoping I think for more than it was but WOW were the figures just stunningly amazing. They were very true to “life”.

We did some shopping, finally at lunch - at 3:30- and headed home.

Every muscle in my body hurts. My shins, my thighs, my hips, my abs… hurt.

Pictures to come tomorrow.
