NYC in two weeks.

In two weeks’ time, I will be in New York City! I ordered my plane ticket weeks ago. Since then, I’ve been buying clothes so I am not mistaken for the homeless there. I got a light hoodie jacket since I imagine it’ll be much warmer in NY than it is in MN. But it could get chilly. Jeans, tshirts. I’ve been trying to get some new sneakers, but that has been a miserable experience. I’ve bought, tried, and returned 3 pairs now. They pinch or rub in various places, and that will not do for traversing the city. I have sneakers, but they are tiny little things that might not be great for lots of walking. But they might have to do. I’ll bring a few pairs so I can change it up if any start bothering me.

I had also purchased a big duffel bag to use as luggage. I want everything I bring with me to be easily carried by myself. My mom suggested I decide what to bring, and then buy a bag that it all fits into. But no! I decided on how big of a bag I was willing to carry, and everything I need had better darn well fit into it. I will also have a satchel that I’ll carry around to hold some items like my jacket, journal, and any small purchases I might make. A duffel bag and a satchel. All set.

I think my city boys and I will have much fun. Drinks and hijinks will abound. If I remember to bring my camera, hopefully I will remember to also use that camera, and have photographic evidence of the goings-on.
