Most of Alphabet City is a long hike to any subway stop, and traditionally was one of the skankiest parts of Manhattan, although that has changed a lot in the last decade.
It's also where "Rent" was set.
The sun is shining,
It's a lovely day,
A perfect morning
For a kid to play,
But you've got lots
Of bills to pay --
What can you do?
Your work real hard
And the pay's real low
And ev'ry hour
Goes oh, so slow
And at the end of the day
There's no where to go
But home to Avenue Q!
You live on Avenue Q!
You're friends do too.
You are twenty-two
And you live on Avenue Q!
Ooooo, Ooooooo
I am the dust ghost.
Oooooo, Oooooo
2/3 of the bedroom cleaned. 1 evil third left
So, beth - by cleaning you mean exorcising?
Oh, how I hope Stephen colbert sees that.
And you live on Avenue Q!
(In spite of having a sister living on Ave C for 5 years, it never occured to me until you posted this that Ave Q might not take place in Brooklyn.)
(In my defense, Sesame St was set in the Bronx, so my assumption that it was an outer borough neighborhood was not entirely pulled out of my ass. And also because Brooklyn's lettered avenues go P, Quentin St, R,S,T...)
I've got most of the cleaning done, except for my bedroom, and I am not allowing anyone to even look in there. It looks like a tornado went through there recently.
Thanks, beth. I also took some tylenol arthritis in the hopes that my body will stop revolking against me. It can kick in anytime now.
(I'd assumed that Avenue Q was in Brooklyn, too.)
