And Then I Fell into a Pothole...
My Fourth of July was moving along splendidly. The express train zipped me downtown and I had a lovely lunch with my Australian friend who was visiting NYC for the first time (gee, can you guess who it is?) After lunch at the South Street Seaport, we ventured uptown via subway (after the absentminded one figured out which direction to head) to the Apple Store, a must-visit for my fellow Apple fanatic. A trip to Soho would not be complete without an iced mochachino @ Space Untitled on Greene Street, along with a look at the developer release of Tiger, Apple's newest operating system.
Afterwards as we walked up Greene Street, I made sure I lived up to my reputation for being clumsy by falling into a pothole in the street, leaving my visitor temporarily stunned since I fell into him. I pulled myself up and limped away, embarrassed by my own display of acrobatics. Now that I'm home and the ankle is swollen, I'm no longer finely tuned for prime-time city speed walking. I think this means my plan for viewing the fireworks show up close and personal will now be limited to television. #@$%&!!!!

Really sorry to hear about the ankle. Hope the rest of the weekend was accident free.

the clumsiness is usually my forte. Really, you must ask permission to borrow it next time, okay?
