thanks to all of you that sponsored me, i raised $900 for the aidswalk. thanks again. it was a beautiful day—sunny and cold—and so many great buildings along riverside drive that i didn't even make the usual nosebleed jokes about being uptown. who knew that they stuff you along the way? they were passing out mint skittles and string cheese and fresh samanthas and tapioca pudding to the point where you were kind of grossed out, but it was nice anyway. we were hustling the whole way since the walk is so congested and slow that it feels like six miles of canal street—i mean, do you have to talk on your cell phone while you're doing the walk? not that i'm hatin'.
i'm flying on thursday and scared. i know tons of people are flying every day, but i hate being on a direct flight in the morning from san francisco to new york. also, i'm to be a pallbearer. in an aloha shirt.
