Urban Jungle? 37/366

Not exactly, but leafy green plants do add some nice atmosphere - and help clean the air - in a NYC apartment.

Go Big Blue 36/366

Coinciding with the Super Tuesday primaries, the NY (NJ) Giants had their Super Bowl victory parade in downtown Manhattan, along the Canyon of Heroes. This little fan, like the rest of us, couldn't see anything other than some ticker tape and streamers falling from windows, but he was really excited to be there, nonetheless.

Seasonal weather 35/366

A few days ago, various people were bemoaning the lack of snow in NYC in January. It was the least snowy January in 75 years (these statistics are clearly kept by the more science-minded crowd of obsesssed baseball fans). The snow didnt' last long and didn't stick, but it was nice to walk in for a minute or two.

Traditions 34/366

Somethings just go together: chocolate and peanut butter; hummus and pita; and the Super Bowl and fried foods. My friends' deep fryer gets kicked into high gear for the annual event. This year, the game was even more exciting than the commercials! Go Big Blue!!

Aftermath 33/366

I hate washing dishes, but a bunch of used wine glasses, etc. are the aftermath of a good dinner with friends, so I'll take the hit.

Music in the Morning 32/366

I have become quite a fan of several of the musical acts that I frequently see in subway stations. Sure, there are lots of really bad musicians who shouldn't even be playing on noisy underground platforms, but occasionally you get lucky. This group of five a cappella singers were fantastic. So I bought their CDs. It's good to be able to be a patron of the arts.

"Rush" Hour 31/366

We still call it rush hour even when no one can move. This was the scene that greeted me as I tried to get out of the subway. It took me probably about 5 minutes to walk what normally takes about 15 seconds. A great way to end the day.
