There's an Applebees in Battery Park City, just north of the World Financial Center.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

there's nowhere to eat down there

Mustang Sally's and/or Harry's. Perfectly good bar food.

You would think that it would not be horribly difficult to find a pair of uncropped, reasonably priced cargo pants.

This is also my GF's lament and has been for several years now.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Yeah, I guess I've gone to the Triple Crown (right next to Sally's) a lot down there, it's not bad.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I've scored all my cargo pants at resale ships.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Silly kitten decided to start meowing outside our door at 5 am this morning. I guess someone was unhappy about us being away...

Yeah, if I'm alone and not with any locals, I'll pick chains. But that's more in transit, because if I'm picking the destination, I'll research. Or you know, ask here.

My parents take me out to a lot of chains when I visit, but we often eat out a LOT when I visit, not sure why. At least 50% of the time, it is the local non-chain restaurants. A lot of mexican at their usual haunts, and GASP even Thai (with some fun mexican-thai fusion!) and Indian (sadly, the Indian place closed under a cloud. But it was seriously the best Indian I've ever had. And in Las Cruces? Weird.) And of course burgers and burritos from Ray's Liquor store, which is in an old gas station turned feed store turned liquor turned liquor and semi-takeout.

I'll try some vintage/resale shops tomorrow, because so far the alternative is spending $100-200 at Nordstrom.

I found a pair that I was going to try on at a discount store, but then I looked down and saw that the right leg was embroidered; it looked like a weird shin growth.

Have you ever shopped there, Kristin? I found that with Google earlier, but I've never heard of it before and the T&A doesn't impress me much.
