Top of the Rock

Well, not really.

It was my cousin's last night in NYC before heading back to Ohio so Ando and I went to dinner and then Times Square and Rockefeller Center with Dupree.
It was a bit cold outside, but that just added to the Christmasy spirit. (ED should appreciate me adding a "y" to the end of Christmas to make a new word)

Dupree and Ando were both asked by two separate groups of people if they would take their picture in front of the Rockefeller tree, but I didn't get asked at all; what's up with that? Maybe everyone thought I looked shady and would run away with their cameras.
As touristy as it sounds I do enjoy seeing the tree at Rockefeller Center every year, it puts me in the Christmas spirit a little more. I was going to end up doing it eventually and this was a good excuse to go, thanks cuz. Sometimes being a tourist in your own city isn't so bad.

Bowling

This weekend I took advantage of the groupon I bought a couple of months ago for bowling at The Gutter in Brooklyn. I bought the groupon in the summer thinking I would eventually go bowling, but time just kept slipping by without bowling coming to fruition and my groupon was getting close to expiring. We finally went and it turned out the groupon deal was stellar; 6 of us bowled one game with shoe rentals and two pitchers of Guinness for $55; less than $10 a person for bowling, with shoes and beer, score?

Everyone came, well Ando, CB Radio, Goose, Ice and Joel, to channel our inner competitive spirit. It's fun to hit up the bowling ally every once in awhile and see how your game diminishes the more beer you drink. I scored a 124, which I was very happy with, but that was only good enough for third. Ando won, and was followed closely by Goose; 130 and 128 respectively.

Good times bowling and hanging with friends this weekend!
