In A New York Minute/Closing Night

So first of all on the way to the closing night party, there were 2 people that were meeting for their first date. It was a blind date. they were meeting in front of this restaurant and I heard them introduce themselves, the beginning...

Then...I just had drinks with Joey Slonick (I've seen him on Nip Tuck and some other shows, his face is familiar I know he's been in Family Guy) and Mark Linn Baker (cousin Larry from Perfect Strangers). Now what I mean is we were having drinks in close proximity to each other and I was talking to the same people they were. That counts right? Anyway, that was the early in the evening.

The middle of the evening was a little sad. It was when you're sitting with a whole bunch of people and you feel so alone that you think that there isn't good to fill the empty feeling inside. There isn't enough light or love or warmth to fill the cold empty dark loneliness.

But that passed very quickly, and the rest of the night was spent in assorted conversations with people I will probably never see again. It's so weird to think of that but it's true. But the conversations were good. There was one girl who just kept listening to me and this other girl talk and told us to be careful about wasting our time and our "pretty" on the wrong people.

They went on to ask about the relationship deal breakers, love of your life, your first love, sexiest scene in a movie, sexiest actor/actress above & below 50.... and on and on and on. i can't even remember all the questions. It was weird, trying to really get to know people that you won't see again. It was like trying to squeeze an entire relationship into 3 hours.

The end of the evening ended with me hailing a cab at an obnoxious hour of the morning while 2 guys were clearly breaking up outside of Rawhide, the gay bar next door to the bar we were in. I guess that's an evening in Chelsea, A relationship starts, a relationship ends, and a bunch of people pass through each other's lives for a moment.... In a New York Minute (I know bring out the cheese)

I'm sobering up and exhausted...

Take a second and watch the You Tube video of NY Minute. Even if you've heard the song, the intro is good too. (Or maybe I'm just feel sappy and sentimental)
