"William Elliot, es-queer"



Last night we ate dinner at Abe and Arthur's and saw Billy Elliot. We really don't have any words to describe the Billy Elliot experience. Basically, Billy Elliot dances around, cross-dresses with his friend Michael, and sings about his "mum" a lot.

After the show, we met Keith at Faces and Names aka Faces of the Gnome and had a pretty low key night. The waitress was pretty wretched. Michele and I wanted to stiff her due to her wretchedness, but Dad (Keith) wouldn't allow it.

Today we went to Central Park, the Plaza, FAO Schwarz, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. We ate lunch at the Oak Room in the Plaza where we each ordered a $20 bowl of soup. Yes, $20. No, it wasn't special soup. No, there were no diamond chips or flakes or gold floating around in the soup bowl. It was just mediocre soup.

At FAO Schwarz we found these dolls called "ugly dolls" and decided to take a picture holding the ugly doll that most resembled us. Just as the picture was being taken, some rando weird Asian girl grabbed an ugly doll and hopped in our picture. It is the best picture of the trip so far.

Tonight should get interesting.
