Good
morning Roya,
How
are you today? I am still sleepy. I haven't been waking up rested for the last
few weeks. The funny thing is I have
been sleeping more. I guess it is the
heat. I hope you had a good time at the
show last night.
SNB

Good
morning my love:
I'm
sorry the heat has been bothering you. Why don't you run the AC when it's too
hot? Or is that just another hassle? I hope the AC at work wasn't too bad
yesterday, or at least the complaints weren't.
The
concert was weird. We got there near 8 which is when it was to start, so we
weren't able to sit up close with more serious music lovers. The reason I've never gone to Shakespeare in the park is because
you have to sit up close to see anything; I never thought that was a problem with the Philharmonic, but the sound wasn't that great. It
was too low, and we were surrounded by people with children, young children like
4-7 age range. We had Nadi and Ellen (Maggie’s daughter) with us and they went
off to play with a beach ball, and harass other people, I'm sure. Then a group
of Hispanic women and young children arrived. And this one woman talked
incessantly about her stupid life. I tried to pull the blanket away from them,
saying "assholes" to no one in particular but loudly. But there wasn't much room to move away
anyway. So, for the next 10 minutes I had to listen to the woman keep saying,
she didn't understand whether I meant they were assholes, and why, and what do
people expect when they come to a park where kids are. But the kids were fine;
it was her who was yapping! All these other people were glaring at them too,
but she just didn't seem to understand.
After the intermission, some people left, so we pulled the blankets to
an area where there were only adults and everyone seemed to be there for the
music. So, that was nice. They played Wagner (an odd choice in Riverdale),
Tchaikovsky and Brahms. Then there were fireworks, which I love. So, all in all
it was all right, but it could've been better. Next year, I should go earlier
so that one can be closer to the stage.
I'm
going to be on the road to VT in the afternoon today. I'll take my laptop, but
I'll be a little incommunicado until Thursday night. I will write, but I don't
think I can write as often.
And
you? How come you didn't rehearse on Monday? Isn't that your rehearsal day?
I
love you, SNB.
Me

We
didn't rehearse because we don't have any gigs booked and we had played three
nights the week before. We resume on
Monday. It was nice to have a break.
Our
bedroom is cool. I don't think it is the
heat while I am sleeping. I think it
just generally messes up my body clock.
Too
bad about the crowd in the park. It is
inevitable that people spoil the fun.
And I don't mean the kids. As you
note, it is the adults. The heat
probably didn't help. I don't know how
they set their repertoire. I think
Wagner is always an odd choice.
It
is a beautiful day for a road trip. Too
bad I can't join you. Have fun.
I
love you gorgeous.
Me

So,
since it's my turn to procure a hotel room for next time, I've been doing some
research. It seems that the Hilton will put in a request for early check in.
Regular is at 3, but they can perhaps do 2. Waldorf will not take early check
in requests. I also found Manhattan Hotel, and The Sanctuary, both in Times
Square which seem fine, unless you don't want to be in Times Square. Manhattan
is on the websites for day rate hotels and claims they don't have day rates,
same with Sanctuary, but they will do early check in if they have the rooms,
I'm sure Manhattan will too. One must be careful to get a room with a separate
private bathroom at the Sanctuary. I also found this funky one that at least on
line doesn't look bad. It's called
Herald Square Hotel. They are in Herald Square and do hourly, 3 hours for
really cheap, but it looks cute.
Can
you check these out and let me know what you think?
XOXOXO
HFG

Herald
Square is not bad from what I hear. When
I worked with the Japanese, the guys would go there to shower and nap after
their flight from Japan. They would fly
here for a one day visit! If they were
willing to go, it must have been clean.
I
will check the others.
I
love you HFG.

Im
typing on the phone so I have to keep it brief. You think it's so easy for me
to walk away from you?
I
have so many negative characteristics but cold isn't one of them. If anything I
tend to veer in the opposite direction: passion and drama. So next time you see
me expect pouting. I'm a woman and come from a culture where women are persuaded,
Persians call it nuz. It's a verb. One does nuz.
Still
snb. Did you think you could be anything but? So much for being brief.
I
still expect a wildly romantic gesture :)

I
can't deal with connecting to the net so it's the tiny phone screen. Im so miserable. Had a fight with Nadi. The logistics of our femaleness and mother
daughter stuff isn't ideal. And the
marriage the way it is, I don't know if I will survive.

So
let's see, can I deduce...it's almost midnight and you never said good-night.
Tomorrow is a work day, so you're asleep. I tried to write this on the phone,
but lost the draft, so had to connect to this dump's wi-fi. You always say
good-night, why not tonight?
XOXOXO
Me

No
goodnight just because you’re in NY? Aren't we on internet anyway? .
