Met up with Cherry in NYC after she came back from Canada. Seems she sprained her

ankle pretty pretty bad, but hopefully it's not broken or fractured. Everyone else went off to

Thailand, so it's just Cherry and I (Well, until Sunday when she goes back too). Gee, ever

get that "Alone" feeling?

Anyway, we walked around trying to find a regular dinner, which we finally did. Actually, it

was more of a health food kind of dinner. I'm glad too because the food was really good. I

really enjoyed getting to catch up with Cherry on many things going on in both of our lives.

Afterwards, we went to starbucks (Yuck) for a coffee and some more chatting. Then we left

and went home. I had a really good time!

I got a call from Cherry asking me to meet her on Sunday to help her with her bags. Me, being the suave and depanaire gentleman that I am, said of course. She mentioned taking the train to the airport, but I tried to help her see the wisedom of taking a cab. She would have no part of it, stubern!

Well, when I got there and tried to lift one of the suitcases, I realized that a crane would probably come in handy right about then! She, knowing it was 8 tons ahead of time, started laughing at the situation and my gauranteed future hernia.

We finally got the bags downstairs and I again reminded Cherry that a cab was a really good idea, but noooooooooooo that stubern thing again. Now keep in mind that Cherry sprained her ankle quite good when she was in Canada, which makes her reluctance to take a cab even more amazing.

After dragging these bags two blocks, Cherry has a revolation and decides that we should take a cab, hey, why didn't I think of that?
We hail a nice sized cab and off we went to Kennedy.

We had a nice little lunch there and wondered around a bit talking. I had to get back home to take care of some things, so I bit Cherry a good ride and fair well, 'til next time that is!

It's always good to see Cherry in the city.

p.s. I will, now being abandoned by all my Thai friends here, hold down the fort in preperation for their return.
