Waa! I feel so unbelievably rude! Justin and I were walking back up a hill toward our hotel room after having breakfast in the hotel restaurant and we passed a woman that was obviously coming from a workout. She seemed happy, but I was avoiding eye-contact with her. Out of the corner of my eye I saw her look at me and smile, which would have been a kind and friendly greeting if I had been aware of myself and returned the gesture. A few moments later, we passed and elderly couple pushing a baby stroller and the woman raised her hand to wave a hello, but neither Justin nor myself looked directly in their faces. After we passed them, I had to express my shock to Justin and describe the events that had just transpired. I am usually one that goes out of my way to greet people/passersby - and I missed two blatant opportunities to do that today. Those sort of things never present themselves in NY. You have to aviod ppl, because the only ones that want to give you any sort of attention are generally up to no good.
Are my nine+ months in New York beginning to change me, and Justin too?

More about the Simpsons Premiere evening and after party later. It was a LOT of fun, and I will have photos uploaded by the end of the week.

Ness didn't notice but i acually returned the smile of the nice lady walking down the hill. as for the older couple i didnt make eye contact but i was rather curious what was in their stroller... well.. because they were old.
probably their dog was in their stroller?
