Not a selfie selfie!

Movie you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star (Wars or Trek), LOTR or Marvel.

At LaGuardia waiting to fly home! Looking a bit haggard!

And we finish off our quick NYC visit with a stop at John’s Pizzeria on Times Square!

Christmas at The Met!

Truly my happy place!

I could spend hours… oh wait I did!

The impressionists!

The masters were in attendance today and I was entranced!

Apparently I made him quite hard…. 😈

So we were off to the Met today then. I was an angel as evidenced by my halo! Ahhh to have an of granite like that… 😈

We were going to have breakfast at Ellen’s Stardust today… but the line was literally around the corner. At least an hour wait in the 22° air… without windchill! No thank you! So Macdonald’s it was! Inspiring!

Dinner at Oceana tonight! We love seafood and have to partake whenever we’re near the coast… any coast!

All the leaves are brown, All the leaves are brown And the sky is grey, And the sky is grey I go for a walk, I go for a walk On a winter’s day, On a winter’s day 🎶

Central Park

Central Park

Central Park Zoo… Iconic. No I did not go in though they were open. It was too cold to really stand around. But this bear statue was being quite flirtatious! 🐻

I went to The Frisk Collection Museum today. They did not allow pics inside and I did not get any good pics outside… so here is a couple of Central Park!

I was honestly a little disappointed in the window displays on 5th avenue this morning… but Bergdorf Goodman did not let me down. This in particular was a good one!

So, we are staying just a couple blocks from Rockefeller Center, and the tree lighting was last night! Making it total chaos just to walk to our dinner and theater. I’m glad I get to experience the season in NYC, but once is enough! LOL. I can’t imagine doing New Year’s Eve here! I’m old!

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child! Absolutely Epic!!!! From the staging to the story to the pacing to the acting to the special effects!!!! I. Loved. It!!!!

A walk through Times Square on our way to the show… and a stop in a souvenir shop had George threatening my life as I made him pose for a pic! LOL

Dinner at Duomo51 before the theatre this evening. Very good Italian fare! I had Lobster ravioli. It was very good but it could have used a little sauce. Just a tiny bit as it ended up eating a bit dry! Also getting up to the restaurant was a chore as it was in a small Hilton property.

My favorite era of art begins in the 1860s with the French impressionists… and gives birth to the modern era of art! And I was thrilled to see some of my favorites on display today… Van Gough, Cezanne, Picasso, and Matisse!

While I love the MoMA, I am not the biggest fan of modern art. There is not enough discipline, demonstration of technique etc for my taste. However, they had an entire floor dedicated to Ruth Akawa and I must say I was duly impressed. Here is a very small sample of her work.

Ready to enter the MoMA

Rockefeller Center and Saks

Radio City Music Hall

The view from our NYC hotel!

Well, it may be wet and cold but NYC, I am in you!!!

At Love Field for a 3 hour layover on my way to NYC!

Flying to NYC with the hubby tomorrow! Looking forward to it and have not had my typical travel anxiety… though I do have a little trepidation about the cold!

My FCF (Fat Cunt Friday) for your FCF (Fat Cock Friday!!!

After bringing the plants in today I helped the bestie put up his green house and start winterizing his house. I’m sore as fuck so taking a nice long HOT soak this evening!!! Now who’s gonna cuddle me when I get out?

Got all the plumeria into the garage today. A couple cut down from 13’ tall to 5’. Sigh. It had to be done. This is always the saddest day of the year for me!

Happy National Bottoms Day Off!

Friendsgiving with the bestie! We made enough for 10 people… which is just enough for us! 🦃🐷🐻😎 Also featuring and appetizer and apéritif (Nutella and vodka and a skosh of milk)

Happy Turkey Eve all!!!

Starting to put up Christmas… 🎄

If you see this post your getaway vehicle!

Just waiting on you to get here so we can enjoy this gorgeous afternoon… together!!!

@roughian70.bsky.social Happy Birthday bubba! It was such a pleasant surprise meeting you earlier this year and I look forward to hanging out again!

Had an incredible lunch at Jack Allen’s today… it was a special, Navaho Chicken Mole Taco. Got my car out of the shop… didn’t hit the wallet too hard. I am still full!!! ☺️

Finished my Sunday morning gardening. Digging up/thinning out some lirope!

Doing our thanksgiving dinner today! Everything was soooo gooood!!!! Not a lot of cleanup as I prepped all the dishes yesterday. So now it’s time for a nap!

FCF Who wants to be the pumpkin to my pie? 🎃🥧

Home from running errands… family drama continues. We have rats in the attic… exterminator comes tomorrow. And I had to take my car into the shop… the engine light is on and I don’t know why… just had it serviced. Happy Thursday everyone!

Having a rough day… some serious drama vis-a-vis my brother. Not going to share much but I’m worried beyond measure for/about him. It doesn’t seem real and I’m in a catch 22 as what to do. Can’t enable him… can’t abandon him!

Scintillating Sunday. Showered up after the yard work and cigar. Maybe a nice bowl of cereal and fruit for dinner… 🤔
