I really shouldn’t be bashing the west side anymore. We went to a bar near Miguels on the upper west side for Cinco de Mayo. I used to be all worried about how to get home afterward. To take the subway would require me to go down half the dam island to go cross town and then up again to my place on the east side. I originally thought a cab ride from the west side would be crazy expensive. Well it is not. Late at night it is easy to go uptown, and then really simple to shoot through the park. I was home in less than 10 minutes. I had an easier time getting home than others living downtown since they had to go down on the train.
Another reason to like where I live!
