Happy Birthday Frank

June 8. Today I relaxed for a while and then went down to sit on the Met steps to wait. Today was the Museum Mile Festival, as well as Frank Lloyd Wright's birthday. So me and some friends and some of their friends went to the Guggenheim, and the Cooper Hewitt Museum. We did some street art first then headed in to our first museum. I had already been the Gugg, but it was cool to see how busy it was and some how they kept pushing people in, but once we got in, it did not feel that busy. Good job Frank, you really were a genius. Then we went over the Cooper Hewitt, it was cool, but way to crowded to enjoy. The museum used to be a private home. I can't even imagine how much that would be worth today on the real estate market. I saw one home in a similar area the other day. Three bedrooms, servant's corders, three and a half bath. $20,000 a month. A MONTH. Seriously, didn't even look that great, let alone rent it. So I would guess 20 million, probably way more but it makes a nice pattern 20 thou 20 mill you know, for a home, park views upper 80's, on fifth, and a garden. After that we went to a mexican restaurant that was pretty good, definitely not as good as home, but still fine. But I was raped when we got the bill. We all know I am a heavy drinker, yeah well no such thing as free refill. What is this Europe? Came home and chatted with a friend that is coming out to visit the city soon and we are trying to plan a couple of days.
