New York City, the living breating ant farm

It is kind of funny, some things you take for granted, but I had a realization this evening. New York is living and berating. While trying to move all my superfluous crap out of my apartment on the Upper East Side on the eve of the new month, it has amazed me how fast thing that are placed on the side walk disappear into the night. Doesn't mater, if it is a microwave, bed, couch, elephant, where there is a precised dollar value there is a picker. It is like a giant rat maze where there are droppers and fetchers, the two don't have a understood schedule, or maybe they do the picker being the smarter of the two, but as fast as it goes out, the instant it goes away. I have yet to see anyone take anything, or walk down the sidewalk for that matter, but once I return to the building and return down the stairs, the items are gone. it as if they move between worlds or time space for that matter.

perhaps only a video can portray the real movement of the city.

On oral surgery

Just some thoughts....

On Thursday I had 4 wisdom teeth removes, as a 36 year old male this is quite a horrific experience.

My first memory is being led out of the operating room and on to the curb where an orderly was told to get me in a cab, in my loopy state I told the kind fellow I was ok and I could walk home, form 16th street and 2 ave to 83rd street and York. He said ok, you look good to me. While I am no expert, I am pretty sure this was illegal; I then spent the next hour trying to find morels in Whole Food in Union Sq, success, I have yet to eat them as I am still having issues chewing.

Day two: what was I thinking, I need to go find plantains in east Harlem because while you are still suffering form post anesthesia insanity (yes, they put me out with a general), the best thing to do is to walk around aimlessly in 100 deg weather...

As they days have passed, only a couple, I must admit, perhaps eating mofongo con chichron is not the best choice of meals when you can not chew on any side. Currently it looks like I was hit in the face with a canseco bat and some how crawled out of the sewer. Errrr.


Just a rant!
