I took the day off. Got my car washed up and gased up for tomorrow's NY/NJ/CT meet and went frolicking in Central Park with my 11 year old son. Last evening, my wife and I went walking around the lower east side and had an awesome dinner at the restaurant Allen and Delancey. Last week, we saw Guys and Dolls and went to a Jazz Club. There's more to do here and more to see than time to do it and see it all.In the meanwhile, why not take a road trip? Or maybe there's a mod you are interested in that could take up some time.

That's what I am itching to do as I'm stuck in the office looking out at the sunshine Pass the time by thinking about tomorrow's meet, the forecasted excellent weather and all the driving you'll be doing. Having something fun to look forward to always makes the time pass faster for me.
