After a rather bumpy flight out of Toronto--taking off in the thunderstorm will do that--I have made it to Manhattan!

The hotel is lovely (though I churlishly wish their internet was faster), it's a lovely warm night out there, and I'm starting to get really pumped about seeing a-ha tomorrow. This was probably aided by the fact that the Customs gal I hit at Toronto is apparently a fan.

Customs Gal: What are you doing in New York?
Me: I'm going to see a concert. a-ha.
Customs Gal: No way! Are they still together?
Me: This is their last tour. I had to see them this time.
Customs Gal: That's awesome. Have a great time.

Why can't all customs officers be that much fun? And, ya know, not detain me at the border for vidding.

Tomorrow there will be lunching with [livejournal.com profile] shayheyred, and museuming, and shopping for Ros and the Sweetie. (And no, Sweetie, I'm not going to tell you what I'm getting you.)

And then there shall be a-ha!

I had a fannish customs officer coming back from Montreal. He just wanted to see my Hugo. *g*

(I let him hold it. He was geeked.)

PS, have fun in Americastan, and I highly recommend Veselka on 2nd avenue and 9th street for Ukrainian food. <3

Have a great time! Bring an umbrella at lunchtime: that line of thunderstorms is headed our way.

[goes back to grading ---sigh]

It was Too. Much. Fun. I'm so glad I've got a Sweetie who is willing to indulge me occasionally.

Heck, I'd want to hold your Hugo too! (Does that just sound wrong? ;-) )

I'm giving Veselka serious consideration for dinner tomorrow night. I want to hit Forbidden Planet tomorrow afternoon, and it's pretty darn close.

The gig was fan-freaking-tastic. Manhattan is pretty okay too. *g*

The umbrella paid off in the morning, but it had cleared up well before noon. Yay!

Good luck with the grading. Not-so-yay.

I've posted a semi-thorough report, but man, they were fantastic. Took me right back to first year university when I first fell in love with them.

Best offer I've had this week.

Grand Sichuan Chinese restaurant is also good. *g*
