Last week was full of emotional ups and downs rounded out with cocktails, fireworks and good friends. I had a self-date on Thursday, and I spent about four hours reading The Sun Also Rises at a bar near my apartment. Friday I saw Jaws at the Nighthawk, did some cooking and caught up on some shows. We BBQ’d on the fourth on a loading dock in Brooklyn. There were friends, delicious food, fireworks at night, and of course flowing drinks.

I took a long walk with Piper on Sunday and we invented bars for a story I’m working on. We walked down to Battery Park and back and laughed at ourselves for most of the way.

All in all, it was a wonderful weekend.
