New York City (Day 12): It All Came Down to the Poop

We just missed our flight. Ok, so maybe I shouldn't have said anything in the last blog entry. Maybe I jinxed us... if only we had gotten here 5 minutes earlier. It's 5:35pm and our flight takes off at 6pm, but they won't let us on the plane cuz we just missed the 30-minute cutoff. It all came down to a matter of minutes, and these Newark United agents are a bunch of asses. Don't they know we're Premier members?? Or does that only work for Cindy? Damn. Speaking of whom, we shoved on the crowded subway train this morning, thereby probably contaminating all of New York City with her sick germy germs. So Cin basically came to NYC, got sick, slept for 48 hours, then left. Her "free" ticket ended up costing her $500 and whole lotta grief. Poor girl. Ah, we still love her though. Germs and all. Kinda.

So anyhoo, it all came down to a matter of minutes. Five minutes. Maybe we shouldn't have gone out to Chinatown earlier today for those yummy spongecakes at Kam Hing. Or maybe we shouldn't have had such a long lunch of hella good wunton noodles at Noodle Village. Perhaps we should've skipped the cupcakes at Crumb. But these activities were all part of the plan... we made time for this. What we didn't plan for was my unexpected bathroom break, my sudden number 2. Hey, I couldn't help it. It just kinda snuck up on me. Oh like that's never happened to you! Pssht. Anyway, our trip to Newark International was hella convoluted... waiting for the E train, then transferring to the PATH train, then transferring to the NJ Transit, then getting on a slow ass elevator, and then hopping on the air train to the terminal. I'm sure there's an easier way of getting here. Five more minutes. That's all we needed. My poop did us in. It all came down to the poop.

Random Stuff:
  • So the next flight is at 6am. Luckily, one of my cousins lives in NJ and he sweeps us up from the airport and we spend the night at his place. Sucks that he has to drive us back here at 4am. Nice to hangout with him and his family though.
  • We heart NY.
