Adventures in the City that Never sleeps.

I was on a quest to go to a adult store because I had yet to check “buy a porn” off my list of things to do when I turned 18.

First, we looked up 24-hour places in NJ and the one that we found turned out to be just an online store, that's apparently run from a really nice house up in the hills... we found this out when the GPS took us to the middle of a residential neighborhood... This could not be the store.

So, after that minor set back and 9.00 in tolls later, we head into the city...

Alright, so I’m nearing 24 and I finally accomplished said goal. I should feel so proud. However, the highlight of my night was the 2 seconds or so that it took to walk through a crowd of 30-40 gay guys and Drag Queens at 3 AM.... Only in NYC and it was like my life was slightly complete.

Can I just also say that even at two or three AM in NYC is it filled with the most amazingly different smells. Stores are still open, restaurants still producing enticing aromas. Oh it was fantastic. And, for my 3rd trip in the city I finally had my first piece of actual New York style pizza, it was fantastic. and New York Cheesecake.... aweeesome.

I’m so glad I moved to New Jersey....because I can say "Oh I want to do something" and be in the city within 20 minutes (Like, in Manhattan) and there still be things to do. This is where I need to be and I finally feel like I belong somewhere.
