I’m flying back from Texas and then I’m in an Uber to the Lower East Side to collect things and then I’m in an Uber to the West Village and then I’m going to sleep. New York feels all new again, all because I left for only three days. I’m thinking I should leave more. I’m thinking I should cherish the night but then I’m so tired. I go to sleep so early, but outside, there is Ellie’s MFA/MA (?) Graduation Party on the Upper East Side, and an EGirl party at Le Bain. Later, I’m hearing I missed a night that was spectacularly fun on both fronts.
Thursday, June 27 at 6:30pm - Perennial NYC is hosting a reading on an Upper East Side terrace (DM for address). I will be reading, along with Kathy Joyce, Ellie Lynch, Michael Saltypickles, Nick Dove, and David Clarity. Free entry and drinks!

Island (uptown) has pretty waspy food, which is to say - not great. The lychee martinis are good (strong) and the people watching is excellent insofar as, this is not a spot to see and be seen, but rather a place where Upper East Side ladies gather by habit for a daily casual lunch. The interior is nautical, but it avoids being kitschy (we’re on an ocean liner, not a cruise ship). Most patrons here are between middle and elder age, which bodes well to a certain kind of restaurant experience, and one I find myself often seeking, particularly within the confines of a holiday as annoying as Valentine’s Day.
