Just got back from a great trip to NYC. Holly Golightly at the Mercury Lounge on Thursday. Many drinks with a few good friends on Friday. Robert Smithson exhibit at the Whitney and 2046 on Saturday.
But most of all, a chance to just sort of be for a while. A chance to be in a moment instead of being a series of them; instead of being in a big picture. I spent hours and hours walking with no destination on Friday. My feet were sore and blistered, each step making it worse, but knowing I didn't really have anywhere I needed to be for so long made it better. The blisteres still hurt; now, looking back I wish I'd worn different shoes, but at the time, the discomfort and pain was part of the moment.
